Easy Ground Beef Enchiladas

Instructions

Instructions

1
|
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2
|
Spoon about half a can of the enchilada sauce into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Set aside. Reserve the remaining sauce for a later step.
3
|
Finely chop the yellow onion and bell pepper. Remove seeds from the jalapeño and finely dice. Mince the garlic.
4
|
Set an extra-large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Allow oil to heat, then add the onion and peppers to skillet. Saute until somewhat softened and translucent, 4-5 minutes. Add the ground beef, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Cook the beef, breaking it up with a spatula, until thoroughly browned, 5-6 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
5
|
Drain any excess fat from the skillet and transfer beef mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add the shredded cheese and reserved enchilada sauce. Mix with a rubber spatula to combine.
6
|
Place a few tortillas on a dinner plate and warm in microwave until pliable, 20-30 seconds. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
7
|
Spoon about 1/4 cup of beef and cheese mixture into the center of a tortilla. Gently roll the enchilada and place it seam-side down into the sauced casserole dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
8
|
Pour and spread the enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over top.
9
|
Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
10
|
Bake the enchiladas on middle rack of oven for 20 minutes.
11
|
Carefully remove the foil and continue baking until beef reaches 160°F, edges are bubbling, and cheese on top is slightly golden brown, 7-10 minutes.
12
|
Check to see that enchiladas are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.
13
|
Allow dish to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve.
