Ingredients

  • 1 lb Ground beef
  • 1 medium Onion
  • 1 can Enchilada sauce
  • 8 count Corn tortillas
  • 2 cups Shredded cheese
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil

Instructions

  1. 1Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Dice the 1 medium onion into 1/4-inch pieces. Have a 9x13 inch baking dish ready.
  2. 2Heat the 1 tbsp of olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the 1 lb of ground beef and the diced 1 medium onion, cooking for 8-10 minutes while breaking up the beef with a spoon, until the beef is browned and no longer pink, and the onion is softened. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
  3. 3Open the 1 can of enchilada sauce. Stir half of the 1 can of enchilada sauce (approximately 7.5 ounces if using a 15-ounce can) into the cooked ground beef and onion mixture. Remove the skillet from the heat.
  4. 4Pour the remaining half of the 1 can of enchilada sauce into a shallow dish. Dip each of the 8 count corn tortillas into the sauce to coat both sides. Lay a coated tortilla flat, spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the ground beef mixture onto its center, and roll it up tightly.
  5. 5Place each rolled enchilada, seam-side down, into the 9x13 inch baking dish. Pour any remaining enchilada sauce from the shallow dish over the enchiladas, then evenly sprinkle the 2 cups of shredded cheese over the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the internal temperature of the beef mixture reaches 160°F (71°C).
