Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 28 ounces red enchilada sauce
• 4 ounces green chiles, diced
• 2 teaspoons chili powder
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 10 large flour tortillas
• 3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (optional for garnish)
• 1 cup sour cream (optional for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté the diced onion until softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 7-10 minutes. Drain any excess fat if needed.

Step 5

Mix in the chili powder, cumin, salt, diced green chiles, and 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce. Stir well and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 6

Spread 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce evenly over the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 7

Fill each flour tortilla with about 3 tablespoons of the beef mixture and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese. Roll the tortilla tightly and place it seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

Step 8

Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas, ensuring they are fully covered.

Step 9

Sprinkle the rest of the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.

Step 10

Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and golden.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before garnishing with chopped cilantro, if desired.

Step 12

Serve warm with sour cream on the side, and enjoy your Family Style Enchilada Dinner!
