Pokyny

Preheat oven to 350 degrees then spray a 9x13" baking dish, or two smaller casserole dishes, with nonstick spray and set aside.

For the Red Enchilada Sauce:

Make sauce

Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat then add flour and whisk constantly for 1 minute. Add seasonings - chili powder through cumin - then whisk until the spices are toasted and very fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add tomato paste then whisk until combined. Slowly stream in chicken broth while whisking to create a smooth sauce then turn heat up to medium-high and simmer until sauce has thickened, 3-4 minutes, stirring often. Cool slightly - can be made up to several days ahead of time. Warm before using.

Assembly:

Warm tortillas

Spread 1/2 cup enchilada sauce into the bottom of the prepared baking dish or dishes, then reserve 1 cup shredded cheese and set aside. Wrap 5 tortillas at a time in a damp paper towel then microwave for 20 seconds to warm.

fill tortillas

Keeping the other tortillas wrapped in the warm paper towel, one at a time place a tortilla on a plate or cutting board then add 1/4 cup shredded cheese into the center and roll snugly. Place seam-side down into the baking dish then continue until the dish has been filled. Warming another batch of 5 tortillas as needed.

Cover

Spoon enchilada sauce over the tops of the tortillas ensuring they are completely covered - uncovered spots will come out tough and hard - then sprinkle reserved cheese on top.

Bake

Cover baking dish with nonstick sprayed foil then bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and sauce is hot and bubbly. Let enchiladas rest for 5 minutes then serve.
