Cooking Instructions
- 1
Add oil to large skillet on medium high. Add onions & garlic
- 2
After about 5min, add ground beef & seasonings. Cook til browned & drain grease
- 3
Add sauce, salsa & 3/4 of chiles to hamburger meat. I would use all the chiles but it would be too spicy for kids. Use as much as you like
- 4
Lower heat to med/med low & let cook about 15 min. During that time, heat beans, shred cheese & tear tortillas in 4's
- 5
In a 9×13 baking pan, spoon a small amount of meat mixture in pan to lightly cover bottom. The helps prevent tortillas from sticking
- 6
Using 10 tortillas, layer the pieces, overlapping alot. This helps absorb juices
- 7
Spoon 1/2 the meat mixture on tortillas & spread evenly. Dallop 1/2 the beans over the meat. Using 1/2 the cheese, sprinkle on top
- 8
Repeat layers once more, topping with cheese. Make sure all tortillas are covered with meat or cheese to avoid toughness. Cover with foil. Bake @350· for 15/20min. Last 5min remove foil. Let sit 5-10 min before serving. Enjoy!

This is another recipe I adapted from Cooking Light magazine, which they consider a weeknight recipe. The assembly time is the most time consuming part of the recipe, but it's very simple, and makes great tasting enchiladas at home. To save even more time, skip step two and omit those ingredients, and use Frontera Foods Green Chile or Red Chile Enchilada Sauce. Jeff Lynch -

This is my modified version of a green enchilada recipe a friend once gave me. It was amazing before, which is why I asked her for the recipe lol, but as I've modified it with each making I've found I really like creating a spice broth for the chicken, and taking the time for that extra simmering, in order to really build and infuse the flavors.
