Enchilada Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Meat

    In a skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent. Add the ground beef or shredded chicken, cooking until fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In a bowl, beat the eggs and mix them with sour cream. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Take a corn tortilla, fill it with the meat mixture, and roll it up. Place the rolled enchilada seam-side down in a baking dish. Repeat until all tortillas are filled.

  4. 4

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Pour the red or green chile sauce over the enchiladas, making sure they are well coated. Pour the egg and sour cream mixture over the top, then sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over everything.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from oven, let cool for a few minutes, then serve hot with additional sour cream or toppings of choice.
