Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
One 28-ounce can enchilada or Mexican red sauce
2 cups chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
Canola oil, for frying
10 to 14 corn tortillas
Two 4-ounce cans diced green chilies
1 cup chopped green onions
1/2 cup chopped black olives
3 cups grated sharp Cheddar cheese
Cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the canola oil and flour. Whisk together and allow to bubble for 1 minute. Pour in the red sauce, chicken broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer while you prepare the other ingredients.
  • While the sauce is simmering, brown the ground beef with the onions in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain the fat, add the salt and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and set aside.
  • In a small skillet over medium heat, heat some canola oil. Lightly fry the tortillas just until soft. Do not crisp. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat until all the tortillas have been fried.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Spread 1/2 cup of the sauce in the bottom of a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Next, one at a time, dip each tortilla into the sauce. Set the sauce-soaked tortilla on a plate. Place on some of the meat mixture, chilies, green onions and black olives. Top with a generous portion of grated Cheddar. Roll up the tortilla to contain the filling inside.
  • Place the tortilla seam side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas and pour the remaining sauce over the top. End with a generous sprinkling of cheese and any other bits of chiles, green onions or olives you have left over from the filling.
  • Bake the enchiladas for 20 minutes, or until bubbly. Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the top and serve.

ANGELA'S AWESOME ENCHILADAS



Angela's Awesome Enchiladas image

The secret is in the seasonings! I whipped these up on my own using stuff I had on hand. Shredding the chicken is the most time-consuming step, but it's worth it in the end. Give these babies a try! Serve with sour cream and a side of Spanish rice.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 1h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cut into chunks
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 ¼ cups sour cream
¼ teaspoon chili powder
1 tablespoon butter
1 small onion, chopped
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
1 (1.25 ounce) package mild taco seasoning mix
1 bunch green onions, chopped, divided
1 cup water
1 teaspoon lime juice
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
5 (12 inch) flour tortillas
3 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded, divided
1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce
1 (6 ounce) can sliced black olives

Steps:

  • Place the chicken in a large pot and add water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the chicken pieces are no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Shred chicken by placing two forks back to back and pulling meat apart. Set the shredded chicken aside. Meanwhile, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and chili powder in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, then turn off the heat and cover to keep warm.
  • Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the shredded chicken, chopped green chilies, taco seasoning, half of the bunch of chopped green onion, and water. Allow to simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the lime juice, onion powder, and garlic powder; simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Stir 1 cup of the soup mixture into the skillet with the chicken mixture. Spread the remaining soup mixture on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Fill each tortilla with chicken mixture. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over the chicken filling before folding the tortillas, reserving half of the shredded cheese for topping the enchiladas. Fold tortillas over the filling and place seam-side down in the prepared pan.
  • Pour enchilada sauce evenly over the enchiladas. Cover with the remaining 1 1/2 cups of Cheddar cheese. Sprinkle the reserved chopped green onions and the sliced olives on top of the cheese. Bake in the preheated oven until filling is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbling, about 25 minutes.

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons light olive oil
1 1/2 pounds beef tenderloin tips, cut into 1/4-by-1/4-inch strips
1 large white onion (about 10 ounces), cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 cloves garlic, chopped
3/4 cup slivered almonds
3/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for topping
1/2 cup raisins, plus more for topping (optional)
2 tablespoons juice from Rosa's Pickled Jalapenos or store-bought pickled jalapenos
1 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
Coarse salt and freshly black ground pepper
Ranchera Sauce
12 (6-inch) corn tortillas
3 to 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cups very thinly sliced red cabbage
6 Rosa's Pickled Jalapenos

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it just starts to smoke. Immediately, but carefully, add beef, onion, and garlic into the pan. Cook, stirring, until onion is translucent and beef is cooked through, about 8 minutes. Add almonds, cilantro, raisins, jalapeno juice, and oregano. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in 1/2 cup ranchera sauce and bring to a boil. Remove from heat. Filling can be made up to 2 hours in advance. Let cool, cover, and refrigerate.

  • Place 1 tortilla in the center of each of six warmed plates. Top each with an even layer of beef filling, and then with a second tortilla. Spoon about 3/4 cup of ranchera sauce over each enchilada and let it run onto the plate.

FIVE-STAR CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Five-Star Chicken Enchiladas image

Going out on a limb with that name, but that's how we rate these little beauties! Make up a batch of my Mexican Gravy/Enchilada Sauce, and you're all set to make this recipe--otherwise just use canned enchilada sauce from the store.

Provided by Debber

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 12 enchiladas, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups cooked chicken meat
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies
1 onion, diced
1 cup enchilada sauce (Mexican gravy)
12 corn tortillas or 12 flour tortillas
2 cups enchilada sauce
1 cup monterey jack cheese, grated
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1/2 cup sliced black olives

Steps:

  • Prepare filling: mix filling ingredients; set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Pour enchilada sauce on a large dinner plate.
  • Assemble enchiladas: Dip one tortilla in sauce on plate, then lay in 13x9 pan for baking.
  • Fill center of tortilla with about 3 T. of filling; roll it up, place seam-side down in the pan.
  • Do this with the rest of the tortillas, laying unfilled tortillas over the top as you assemble (don't get another pan dirty!); squeeze them all into one pan.
  • Pour remaining two cups of enchilada sauce (topping) over the tortillas; sprinkle with cheese and olives.
  • Pop the pan into the oven for about 30 minutes.
  • Serve with sour cream and guacamole.
  • ANOTHER SERVING OPTION: serve on a bed of lettuce, top with sour cream & guacamole.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beef: Flank steak or skirt steak are great options for enchiladas, as they are flavorful and tender when cooked properly.
  • Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the beef properly: The beef should be cooked until it is tender and slightly charred. Overcooking will make it tough and dry.
  • Use high-quality tortillas: Fresh, corn tortillas are the best choice for enchiladas. They are soft and pliable, and they will hold up well when filled and rolled.
  • Don't overfill the tortillas: Overfilling the tortillas will make them difficult to roll and will make them more likely to break.
  • Use a flavorful enchilada sauce: The enchilada sauce is a key component of the dish, so be sure to use a flavorful one. You can make your own sauce or use a store-bought variety.
  • Top the enchiladas with cheese: Cheese is a classic topping for enchiladas, and it helps to hold them together. You can use any type of cheese that you like, but a Mexican blend is a good option.
  • Bake the enchiladas until they are hot and bubbly: Baking the enchiladas will help to melt the cheese and warm the tortillas through.

Conclusion:

Beef enchiladas are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little planning and effort, you can make beef enchiladas that are sure to impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal, give beef enchiladas a try. You won't be disappointed!
