Anweisungen

1. Crumble ground beef into a large skillet and brown well. If beef is very fat, pour off excess fat. Add onion and garlic and cook about 5 minutes until onion is soft, stirring frequently. Stir in salt, pepper, and enchilada sauce and continue cooking over low heat about 15 minutes longer.

2. Meanwhile, in a separate skillet, fry tortilla strips in hot oil a few minutes until slightly crisped. Drain on absorbent paper. Stir tortillas strips into meat mixture and cook about 5 minutes longer, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.

3. Sprinkle with cheese. As soon as cheese melts, remove from heat and serve. Too each serving with shredded lettuce.
