Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 can (10.5 oz) Canned cream of chicken soup
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 2 cups, divided Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 can (4 oz) Green chilies (diced, canned)
• 1 can (10 oz) Red enchilada sauce
• 8 large Flour tortillas
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Add the minced garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper, and cook for an additional minute. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, and green chilies. Stir together until smooth.

Step 5

Spread a thin layer of the mixture (about 1/3 cup) onto the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Warm the flour tortillas slightly in a microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them pliable. Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the beef mixture into the center of each tortilla and roll it tightly.

Step 7

Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat until all tortillas are filled and arranged in the dish.

Step 8

Pour the remaining chicken soup mixture evenly over the enchiladas, ensuring they are fully coated.

Step 9

Drizzle the can of red enchilada sauce over the top and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over everything.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let the enchiladas rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired.

Step 12

Serve warm and enjoy your rich, cheesy beef enchiladas with the creamy chicken soup twist.
