For Assembly

What&#039;s better than beef enchiladas? So easy, flavorful, and the beef is cooked up quickly and ready for shredding right after cooking. Add beef to flour tortillas, smother in enchilada sauce and cheese, and bake for a simple beef enchilada recipe from scratch! 

beef

oil (divided)

salt (to taste, I used 2-3 teaspoons)

chili powder chili pepper

beef broth (or water)

8-10 fajita-size flour tortillas ((8-inch))

shredded Mexican blend cheese (divided)

cilantro, avocado, tomatoes, onions, sour cream, olives (or other favorite toppings)

Place beef pieces in a large bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of oil. Season generously all over with salt. Stir together cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder. Sprinkle all over the beef and toss to coat.

Set pressure cooker to SAUTE and drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil.

Use tongs to sear the beef pieces in the pot for 2-3 minutes on each side.

Remove from pot, add beef broth. Return meat to pot, cover, seal, and set to MANUAL or PRESSURE COOK for 35-45 minutes (see note).

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease a 9x13 baking pan or casserole dish. Spread 1 cup enchilada sauce in the bottom of the pan.

NATURAL RELEASE (do nothing) for 15 minutes, then turn the vent and allow it to depressurize completely until float valve drops.

Remove lid and use two forks to shred the beef. (see note)

Fill tortillas with beef and 2 cups of the shredded cheese (reserve 1 cup for later). Roll and place side by side in prepared pan.

Pour remaining enchilada sauce over the enchiladas, then top with remaining shredded cheese.

Tent with foil and bake for 15 minutes til cheeses are melted. Remove foil and bake another 5 minutes. Add your favorite toppings and serve.

Sear beef pieces in a skillet before placing in the slow cooker (optional). Cover and cook on high for 2 hours, low for 4-6 hours.

slow cooker directions

These are seriously the most delicious beef enchiladas I’ve had. I love how easy it came together in our Instapot! Thank you for this awesome recipe!

Outstanding recipe, and pretty easy to tweak. I cooked about 3 pounds of chicken breast with a sous vide instead of chuck in a crock pot, and it was just as good. If you don't have a sous vide, putting the chicken in a crockpot with some broth would do the trick, I'm sure.

I made this last night and impressed my husband. So good! Thank you. I did the extra steps of adding adobo and toasting the tortillas to help prevent so much saturation. Love this.
