• 份量: 4 servings
• 活動時間: 20 minutes
• 總時間: 40 minutes

食材

1 pound ground beef (Recommend 80/20 ground beef)

1/3 cup chopped white onion

3 Tablespoons chili powder

2 teaspoons cumin

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon Mexican oregano (can use regular oregano)

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

1/2 teaspoon each Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

2 cups chicken broth (or water or beef broth)

3-1/2 cups shredded cheddar or American cheese (I shredded an 12-ounce block of cheese)

8 corn tortillas

1/2 cup chopped white onion

步驟

Make the Chili Gravy

Brown the 80/20 ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. When browned add chopped onion and cook for about 5 minutes. (If you use leaner ground beef, you will need to add a couple of tablespoons of oil.)

Add chili powder, cumin, oregano (Mexican oregano preferably), garlic powder, salt, and pepper and stir until seasoning covers all of the ground beef.

Add the flour and stir in with the seasoned ground beef.

Pour in the chicken broth and bring it up to a boil. Then lower the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. When it thickens up, then it is ready to pour over the cheese enchiladas.

Heat The Tortillas

Meanwhile, heat the corn tortillas in a little oil in a hot skillet or griddle over medium heat. You want to just heat the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side, just until the corn tortillas are soft but not long enough to fry them. When the corn tortillas are soft and pliable, then remove them, drain any excess oil, and place either in a tortilla warmer or on a plate with paper towels.

Tex Mex Enchiladas

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Ladle about a half cup of the chili gravy into the bottom of a 9x13 pan.

Add about 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on the lower third of a corn tortilla. Then tightly roll the corn tortilla around the cheese and place seam side down in the 9x13 baking dish. Repeat until you have rolled all enchiladas.

Pour the remaining chili gravy over the enchiladas, and sprinkle about 1 cup of shredded cheese evenly over the top of the enchiladas.

Bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes.

Serve the enchiladas hot, and top with chopped onions or chopped cilantro just before serving.
