RECIPE 28

Beef Enchiladas

      GRANNY SAYS: A great southwestern USA dish, similar (but not identical) to traditional Mexican enchiladas. The recipe contains a special west-Texas touch! Beef is the standard, but you can substitute cooked chicken, if you prefer.

     

12 corn tortillas 1/2 cup chopped onion
2 to 4 tbsp. chili powder 1/2 cup corn oil
3 cups tomato sauce 1/2 cup shredded lettuce
1 pint sour cream 1 tsp. minced, fresh garlic
1-1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 lb. cooked, shredded beef  
  • Combine tomato sauce, chili powder, and garlic in a saucepan and keep on a warm burner.
  • Sauté the tortillas very quickly, one at a time, in hot oil.
  • Fill each tortilla with a mixture of meat, onion, and cheese.
  • Roll up each one and lay it, flap side down, in a large casserole pan.
  • When all tortillas are filled and rolled, cover with alternating layers of cheese and sauce.
  • Bake uncovered for about 20 minutes at 350 degrees.
  • Garnish with lettuce and sour cream before serving.
