Provided by Lil' Luna

Categories     Main Course

Time 47m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tbsp vegetable oil
4 tbsp all-purpose flour
3 tbsp Gebhardt Chili Powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cumin
2 cups chicken broth
Corn Tortillas
Mexican Blend Cheese

Steps:

  • Add oil to pot and heat on Medium. Pour in flour and whisk together and cook for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt and oregano and mix until clumpy. Pour in chicken broth, whisking the entire time and until there are no more clumps. Heat for 15 minutes or until thickened.
  • After you have made your sauce, you will want to dip your corn tortillas in the sauce until they are soft and immediately put it into a greased 11x7 pan.
  • From there you will add cheese (I use the Mexican Blended Cheese), roll it up and push it to the end of the pan.
  • Continue doing this with your tortillas until your pan is full. From there you will pour the excess sauce over your tortillas. Sprinkle the top with more cheese. (You can also prepare this in advance and refrigerate until ready to cook).
  • Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.

Provided by Serene

Categories     dinner     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 pound ground beef
1 tablespoon Chili Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
3/4 teaspoon Cumin
1/2 teaspoon Dried Oregano
1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/4 teaspoon Onion Powder
1/4 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup oil or butter (canola, vegetable, or avocado oil)
1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 cups beef broth (LOW or NO SODIUM)
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/4 cup canola oil
12-15 white corn tortillas
1 cup Monterey Jack Cheese (shredded)

Steps:

  • Ground Beef
  • Cook the ground beef over medium heat. Break the beef up while it cooks, cook until browned and no longer pink.
  • Turn the heat off. Drain the grease. Add the seasonings to the meat, stir to combine. Then stir in the tomato sauce. Set aside.
  • Homemade Enchilada Sauce:
  • Heat the oil or butter in a medium size skillet over medium heat.
  • Add in the flour and stir to mix. Will be a thick mixture. Allow this to cook for just 1-2 minutes.
  • Add in the spices. Stir to form a thick paste.
  • Stir in the broth and tomato paste. Stir until smooth. Continue to heat to just below a simmer, sauce will thicken slightly.
  • Enchiladas:
  • Preheat oven to 350℉ degrees.
  • Spread enchilada sauce into the bottom of a glass 9x13 baking dish. Set aside.
  • Heat vegetable or canola oil over medium heat in a medium size skillet.
  • Once the oil is hot enough to bubble up when a tortilla is dipped in, gently lay the tortilla into the oil using tongs. Allow the tortilla to cook in the oil for about 10-15 seconds, then flip and cook the other side. (Tortillas will not be browned and crisp, we still want them flexible)
  • Once all tortillas have been fried, dip into the enchilada sauce. Or brush the sauce on.
  • Lay the tortilla down and add a spoonful of ground beef and a small sprinkle of cheese.
  • Roll the tortillas and lay into a baking dish, seam side down. Continue until the dish is filled.
  • Spread leftover sauce over the top of the enchiladas. Sprinkle with leftover shredded cheese.
  • Bake for 10 minutes until the cheese is melted.
  • Serve warm and enjoy.
