Enchilada Filling

Enchilada Sauce

Method

Prepare the Filling

  1. 1

    Cook the Beef

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Vegetables

    Add the chopped onion, garlic, and green bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.

  3. 3

    Mix in Remaining Ingredients

    Stir in the black beans, corn, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until everything is heated through. Remove from heat.

Make the Sauce

  1. 4

    Cook the Sauce Base

    In a medium saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the tomato sauce and water, stirring to combine.

  2. 5

    Season the Sauce

    Add the chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Stir well and let it simmer for 10 minutes to thicken slightly.

Assemble the Enchiladas

  1. 6

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 7

    Fill the Tortillas

    Spoon approximately 1/3 cup of the filling onto each corn tortilla. Roll them up tightly and place them seam-side down in a greased baking dish.

  3. 8

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Pour the prepared enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas. Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly on top.

  4. 9

    Bake

    Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

  5. 10

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, and serve hot.
