Easy Ground Beef Enchiladas Recipe

Ingredientes

• 1 lb lean ground beef
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp chili powder
• 8 flour or corn tortillas
• 2 cups enchilada sauce (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
• Sour cream (for topping)

Preparación

1. 1

   Prepare the Beef Filling: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with diced onion and minced garlic until the beef is browned and the onions are translucent, about 7-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat, then stir in the cumin and chili powder to evenly coat the meat mixture. Remove from heat.

2. 2

   Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or coat it with cooking spray for easy cleanup.

3. 3

   Fill Tortillas: Warm the tortillas to make them pliable. Spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the beef filling down the center of each tortilla, then roll them tightly.

4. 4

   Assemble Enchiladas: Arrange the filled tortillas seam side down in the prepared baking dish in a single layer. Pour the enchilada sauce evenly over the top, coating all the tortillas.

5. 5

   Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the sauced tortillas.

6. 6

   Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

7. 7

   Serve: Remove the enchiladas from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve warm, topped with a dollop of sour cream as desired.
