Time 2h35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 tablespoon olive oil
½ cup finely chopped onion
4 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon dried oregano
3 ½ teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried cilantro
½ cup prepared salsa
1 (6 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
2 cups chicken broth
1 pound ground beef
¾ cup finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ cup prepared red enchilada sauce
½ cup beef broth
½ cup shredded Mexican-style cheese blend
cooking spray
8 (6 inch) flour tortillas
2 cups shredded Mexican-style cheese blend
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • To make the spicy red sauce, heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat, and cook and stir 1/2 cup of onion until the onion is softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in 4 teaspoons of garlic, and cook and stir until fragrant, another 3 to 5 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning the garlic. Stir in the oregano, 3 1/2 teaspoons of chili powder, basil, salt and black pepper, 1 teaspoon of cumin, the dried cilantro, salsa, tomato sauce, tomato paste, and chicken broth until the sauce is smoothly combined.
  • Bring the sauce to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and simmer about 30 minutes, stirring often, until the flavors have blended and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  • While spicy red sauce is simmering, cook and stir the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the meat is evenly browned. Break the meat up into crumbles as it cooks, and drain off excess grease. Mix in 3/4 cup of onion, 1 tablespoon of garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of cumin into the meat, and cook and stir until the onions are softened and the meat mixture is fragrant with spices, 5 to 10 more minutes. Stir in the enchilada sauce and beef broth; simmer for 5 more minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup of Mexican cheese blend, and allow the cheese to melt into the meat sauce. Reduce heat to low, and simmer the meat sauce for 30 more minutes to thicken.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Spray both sides of each tortilla with cooking spray, stack up the tortillas with a piece of aluminum foil between each tortilla, and wrap the stack with aluminum foil. Place the tortillas into the preheated oven to warm, about 10 minutes.
  • Spread about 1/2 cup of the spicy red sauce over the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Fill each tortilla with the meat sauce, reserving about 1/2 cup of the meat sauce; roll the tortillas into enchiladas, and arrange in the baking dish, seam sides down. Pour the remaining spicy red sauce over the enchiladas. Sprinkle with the reserved 1/2 cup of meat mixture, and top with remaining 2 cups of Mexican cheese blend.
  • Bake until the cheese topping is golden brown and the sauce is bubbly, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with cilantro to serve.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound ground beef
1 small white onion (diced)
1 clove garlic (minced)
2 tablespoons taco seasoning (1 packet)
½ teaspoon cumin
1/4 cup water
8-10 corn tortillas
28 ounce can red enchilada chile sauce
2-3 cups freshly shredded cheddar jack cheese
1 green onion (thinly sliced)
Optional Toppings: Sour Cream (Pico de Gallo or salsa, Diced Avocado, Fresh cilantro)

Steps:

  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef with diced onions and garlic, breaking up the beef with a spoon as it cooks. Cook until no longer pink. Drain any excess grease.
  • Sprinkle taco seasoning and cumin over the beef and stir in ¼ cup of water. Continue to cook, stirring often, until water is absorbed.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Pour ½ a cup of enchilada sauce in the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish and spread evenly.
  • Heat remaining sauce in a small skillet, just until bubbly, then remove from heat. Wrap a stack of 10 corn tortillas in a clean kitchen towel and microwave on high for 30 seconds to a minute. Dip a tortilla in the enchilada sauce to coat both sides then lay flat on a cutting board or plate. Add a small amount of the meat mixture (about 3 tablespoons) down the center of the tortilla, then top with about 1-2 tablespoons of shredded cheese. Roll up both sides and place seam side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and meat.
  • Pour remaining sauce over the enchiladas evenly and top with remaining shredded cheese. Feel free to add more or less cheese based on your preferences. Sprinkle sliced green onion on top.
  • Bake uncovered for 20-30 minutes, or until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbly. Let sit 5 minutes before serving. Garnish as desired with optional toppings like sour cream, pico de gallo, avocado, sliced green onions or cilantro.

GROUND BEEF ENCHILADAS WITH RED SAUCE



Ground Beef Enchiladas With Red Sauce image

I dont like the store bought red enchilada sauce, so I make my own. You can use any beans you like, black, pinto, chili or kidney. I have also left the beans out, and spread the tortilla with refried beans before adding the beef mixture. Either way is great. I like to make the sauce and beef mixture the night before, then all I have to do is assemble and bake, and its super easy. This recipe freezes well. Sometimes I like to make a double batch of the sauce, and freeze for later use.
