Certainly! Here’s a simple beef enchiladas recipe for you:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can (15 ounces) enchilada sauce
- 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies, drained
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
- 8 flour tortillas
- Optional toppings: chopped fresh cilantro, diced tomatoes, sour cream, sliced black olives
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the Filling: In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until it’s browned. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and cook until the onion is softened and translucent. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
- Season the Filling: Stir in half of the enchilada sauce, chopped green chilies, ground cumin, and chili powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
- Assemble the Enchiladas: Spoon a portion of the beef mixture onto each flour tortilla, then sprinkle some shredded cheese on top. Roll up the tortillas tightly and place them seam-side down in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Top with Sauce and Cheese: Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas, then sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top.
- Bake: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Once baked, remove the foil and let the enchiladas cool slightly before serving. Garnish with your favorite toppings such as chopped fresh cilantro, diced tomatoes, sour cream, or sliced black olives.
