Ingredients

1 cup water
2 1/2 tomato sauce
1 cup to 2 tsp chili powder
1 –2 tsp salt
1/4 cumin
1 cup green chili peppers

10 8- cup inch flour tortillas

½ cup monterey jack cheese

Instructions

Step 1: Roll & Shape Dough To assemble enchiladas, in ungreased skillet, heat each tortilla low heat, ~15 seconds per side, dip in sauce, fill with ~2 Tbsp beef filling and roll up. Place seam side down in 12 x 8 inch baking dish.
Step 2: Simmer to Rich Flavor To prepare enchilada sauce, in medium saucepan, combine sauce ingredients. Simmer 30 minutes.
Step 3: Sear Steak in Hot Skillet (Cast iron skillets work well for following) To prepare beef filling, in large skillet, cook ground beef and onion (you may sprinkle with additional chili powder) and drain. Add 3/4 cup enchilada sauce to meat and cook low 10 minutes or until sauce absorbed.
Step 4: Bake to Golden Perfection Cover enchiladas *evenly* with remaining sauce. Sprinkle with cheeses and bake uncovered at 350 for 30 minutes. Serve warm straight from the skillet or oven alongside garlic roasted vegetables, crisp seasoned potatoes, or a fresh garden salad in light vinaigrette. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days. Reheat gently to preserve delicate flavors and textures. • **High-Quality Ingredients:** Using fresh pantry essentials and vibrant seasonings ensures restaurant-quality flavor. • **Proper Heat Control:** Maintaining recommended pan and oven temperatures ensures an even sear without burning. • **Rest Before Serving:** Allowing the finished dish to rest briefly allows juices to settle evenly throughout. • **Fresh Herb Brightness:** Fold in chopped fresh parsley, basil, or chives just before serving for vibrant garden brightness. • **Citrus & Pepper Kick:** Finish with a light squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes for balanced zest.
