Enchiladas are a Mexican staple that can be made with chicken, beef, or cheese. This easy recipe makes a tasty and satisfying meal.
You Will Need
- 1 lb. boneless chicken or ground beef
- Vegetable oil
- A mixing bowl
- 1 1/2 c. enchilada sauce
- 1 c. grated cheddar and Monterey
- Jack cheeses
- 12 corn tortillas
- A rectangular baking dish
- 1 4-ounce can green chiles
- 2 c. sour cream, divided
Step 1: Brown the meat
Brown ground beef in a nonstick skillet, or cube the chicken and brown it in vegetable oil.
Step 2: Mix the filling
Drain the meat and transfer to a mixing bowl. Add half the enchilada sauce and half the cheese.
Add chiles and 1 cup sour cream if you’re using these ingredients.
Step 3: Prepare the tortillas
Heat the tortillas in an oven or microwave.
Step 4: Fill the enchiladas
Spread enchilada sauce on the bottom of a rectangular baking dish. Spoon filling on the tortillas and roll them up.
Step 5: Bake
Top with the remaining enchilada sauce and cheese and bake for 15 to 20 minutes in a preheated, 350-degree oven.
Step 6: Serve
Top with sour cream to taste, if desired, and serve the enchiladas while they’re hot.
Did you know? The expression “the big enchilada” was popularized when advisors to Richard Nixon were heard using it on the Watergate tapes.
