Authentic Beef Enchiladas

beef

Chili Powder

Salt

Cumin

Oregano

Garlic Powder

Onion Powder

tomato sauce

all purpose flour

black pepper

salt

garlic powder

onion powder

cumin

oregano

chili powder

beef broth (LOW

tomato paste

canola oil

white corn tortillas

Monterey Jack Cheese (shredded)

Ground Beef

Cook the ground beef over medium heat. Break the beef up while it cooks, cook until browned and no longer pink. 

Turn the heat off. Drain the grease. Add the seasonings to the meat, stir to combine. Then stir in the tomato sauce. Set aside. 

Homemade Enchilada Sauce: 

Heat the oil or butter in a medium size skillet over medium heat.

Add in the flour and stir to mix. Will be a thick mixture. Allow this to cook for just 1-2 minutes.

Add in the spices. Stir to form a thick paste.

Stir in the broth and tomato paste. Stir until smooth. Continue to heat to just below a simmer, sauce will thicken slightly.

Enchiladas:

Preheat oven to 350℉ degrees.

Spread enchilada sauce into the bottom of a glass 9x13 baking dish. Set aside. 

Heat vegetable or canola oil over medium heat in a medium size skillet. 

Once the oil is hot enough to bubble up when a tortilla is dipped in, gently lay the tortilla into the oil using tongs. Allow the tortilla to cook in the oil for about 10-15 seconds, then flip and cook the other side. (Tortillas will not be browned and crisp, we still want them flexible)

Once all tortillas have been fried, dip into the enchilada sauce. Or brush the sauce on.

Lay the tortilla down and add a spoonful of ground beef and a small sprinkle of cheese. 

Roll the tortillas and lay into a baking dish, seam side down. Continue until the dish is filled. 

Spread leftover sauce over the top of the enchiladas. Sprinkle with leftover shredded cheese. 

Bake for 10 minutes until the cheese is melted. 

Serve warm and enjoy.

Flavor-packed enchiladas with caramelized onions and peppers with chipotle-rubbed flank steak and melted cheeses wrapped in a corn tortilla and smothered in our bold red sauce.

Carne Enchiladas

flank steak

chipotle seasoning

olive oil

yellow onions ((halved then sliced))

bell peppers ((any color, sliced))

garlic ((minced))

table salt

SGE enchiladas sauce ((or, a 28-oz can of store-bought sauce))

Mexican cheese blend ((grated))

queso fresco ((crumbled))

corn tortillas

Preheat oven to 350°F

In a medium-sized mixing bowl or plastic bag, add flank steak and chipotle seasoning. Stir to coat evenly.

Add olive oil to a large skillet and preheat over medium-high heat.. Add steak and saute until just done, approximately 4 to  5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Add a little more olive oil to the pan if needed. Add onions and peppers to the pan and saute until they are soft and begin to caramelize for about 10 minutes.

Add steak, garlic, salt, and pepper to the onions and peppers in the skillet. Stir until combined.

Carne Enchiladas Filling

Grease a 13 x 9-inch casserole dish. Spread 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce onto the bottom of the dish.

For each tortilla, spread ⅓ cup of filling mixture in the center, then sprinkle 1 tablespoon of queso fresco, 1 tablespoon of cheese blend, and 1 to 2 tablespoons of the enchilada sauce.

Roll each corn tortilla (they will be full) and place each enchilada seam side down into a greased 13 x 9-inch casserole dish.

Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the casserole, then top with remaining cheese.

Cover the enchiladas with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 10 more minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
