Beef Enchiladas with Homemade Enchilada Sauce

Method

1. 1

   If you're making homemade enchilada sauce, prepare it.

2. 2

   Preheat oven to 350°F.

3. 3

   Add oil to a big skillet and heat over medium high heat. Add ground beef and crumble (use a potato masher to make it easier). Once ground beef is about halfway cooked, add onion, garlic, and green chiles and saute for 3-6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain beef mixture.

4. 4

   To make the enchiladas, spread a couple of tablespoons of the enchilada sauce over the tortilla. Add beans in a line down the middle of the tortilla, then add in a spoonful of the beef mixture, drizzle some extra enchilada sauce over the meat, then add ⅓ cup cheese. Roll up tortilla and place in a greased 9 x 13" baking pan. Continue with remaining tortillas.

5. 5

   Spread the remaining enchilada sauce over the top of the tortillas, and sprinkle with the remaining shredded cheese.

6. 6

   Bake uncovered for 20 minutes, broiling the last few minutes if you want the cheese to be a more golden brown. Garnish with chopped cilantro and green onions.
