Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef (can substitute with ground turkey or chicken)
  • 1 medium onion (diced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder (adjust to spice preference)
  • 1 can enchilada sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 8 pieces corn tortillas (or flour tortillas)
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (like cheddar or Monterey Jack)
  • 1 cup sour cream (for topping)
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro (optional)
  • 1/4 cup sliced jalapeños (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain excess fat, then stir in diced onions, garlic, and spices until fragrant.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the enchilada sauce with a dash of cumin and chili powder for extra flavor.
  3. Take a tortilla and add a generous scoop of your beef mixture down the center. Roll it up tightly and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish. Repeat for all tortillas.
  4. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas, then sprinkle shredded cheese generously on top.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F and bake the enchiladas for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Top with fresh cilantro or chopped green onions.
