Ingredients
- 1 lbs. lean ground beef (96/4)
- 2 cans Red Enchilada Sauce (10 oz. cans) 20 oz. total
- 1 can diced green chilies 4.5 oz. can
- 1 cup Mexican Cheese, Shredded 112g
- 4 Super Soft Mission Flour Tortillas
Beef Seasoning
- 1 tbsp. ground cumin
- 1 tsp. smoked paprika
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. chili powder
- 2 tbsp. water
Instructions
- Pre heat the oven to 375F.
- In a pan over medium brown ground beef and break into small pieces. Mix all seasonings in a small bowl and add water. Mix together to create a paste. Once the beef is almost cooked through, add the seasoning paste to the beef and mix well to combine. Add green chilies and simmer everything together for a few minutes while you prep to layer your enchiladas.
- Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with non stick spray. Add a thin layer of enchilada sauce to the bottom to help the tortillas avoid sticking to the pan.
- Layer enchiladas. 2 tortillas across the enchilada sauce, half the ground beef spread evenly over the tortillas, half the remaining enchilada sauce, half the cheese. Repeat.
- Once you have used all the ingredients in two layers. Add the dish to the oven and bake for 25 minutes until bubbly with slightly crispy edges. Cut through the tortillas and serve.
