You can\u2019t go wrong with these garlic-infused\u00a0beef enchiladas, one of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/top-rated-tex-mex-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/top-rated-tex-mex-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">top-rated Tex-Mex recipes<\/a>. The saucy beef filling is coated with creamy Colby-Jack cheese and rolled inside soft flour tortillas. A homemade enchilada sauce coats the tortillas for a rich flavor and a smooth finish in each bite.<\/p>\n<p>For this recipe, you can use store-bought ingredients like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-taco-seasoning-mix\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-taco-seasoning-mix\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">taco seasoning<\/a> and jarred enchilada sauce, but the depth of flavor in making your own is worth the time. Plus, with a homemade enchilada sauce, you can control the ingredients and make the dish as spicy or mild as you like. Also, if you\u2019re concerned about sodium, this is a good opportunity to use lower-sodium or no-salt-added broth and no-salt-added canned tomatoes.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll provide tips below on how to make this ahead of time so you can cut down on prep during a busy week. You can even store the enchiladas in the freezer for meals to come!<\/p>\n<h2>Beef Enchiladas Ingredients<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Spiced ground beef:<\/strong>\u00a0We flavor ground beef with stewed tomatoes, onion, chili powder, salt, garlic powder, ground cumin and rubbed sage. The mixture thickens and becomes saucy as it simmers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Enchilada sauce:<\/strong>\u00a0Homemade enchilada sauce is surprisingly easy to make. Ours combines garlic with beef broth, tomato sauce, chili powder, ground cumin and rubbed sage. The spices can be strong, so we suggest starting at the low end of each suggested range. Taste the sauce, then adjust the seasonings based on your preferences.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flour tortillas:<\/strong>\u00a0Corn tortillas are traditionally used in Mexican-style enchiladas, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-tortillas\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-tortillas\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">flour tortillas<\/a> are more common in Tex-Mex versions. Flour tortillas are soft and pliable, so they\u2019re much easier to roll up. Feel free to use any tortilla that you\u2019re comfortable working with in this recipe.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Colby-Monterey Jack cheese:<\/strong>\u00a0You might find this cheese at the store labeled as \u201cColby-Jack.\u201d It\u2019s a marbled, orange-and-white cheese with a creamy, slightly tangy flavor. For a spicy twist, swap in pepper jack cheese.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Optional toppings:<\/strong>\u00a0Serve beef enchiladas with any toppings you\u2019d use for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/homemade-tacos\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/homemade-tacos\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">homemade tacos<\/a>. Halved grape tomatoes, minced fresh cilantro, sliced jalapeno peppers, chopped or sliced red onion, and cubed avocado are some of our favorite toppings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Brown the beef<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1970816\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Beef-Enchiladas_TOHVS24_10248_DF_01_18_BeefEnchiladas_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Chopped Onions and Beef in a large skillet\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F.

They can fall apart or become soggy if they\u2019re not treated correctly, though. If you make this swap, lightly fry each tortilla before filling it. This coating creates a moisture barrier that prevents the tortilla from absorbing sauce, so it won&#8217;t get soggy and fall apart.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make green enchiladas:<\/strong>\u00a0To make green enchiladas (also called <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/enchiladas-verdes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/enchiladas-verdes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">enchiladas verdes<\/a><\/em>), use a green enchilada sauce, and use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/fresh-salsa-verde\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/fresh-salsa-verde\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">salsa verde<\/a> with tomatillos instead of the stewed tomatoes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Control the heat:<\/strong> Make this dish spicier by adding additional chili powder or cayenne pepper.

You can also add vegetables like corn, spinach, mushrooms, zucchini or roasted sweet potatoes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Swap out the beef:<\/strong> Replace the ground beef with lean ground turkey or chicken in Step 1. You can also add precooked meats like shredded chicken or pulled pork.

You can reheat leftover enchiladas in the microwave in a pinch, but enchiladas become soggy over time, and the microwave makes them even softer. It&#8217;s better to reheat enchiladas in a 350\u00b0 oven until they reach an internal temperature of 165\u00b0.<\/p>\n<h2>Can you freeze beef enchiladas?<\/h2>\n<p>To freeze beef enchiladas, let them cool completely. Transfer the enchiladas into a freezer-safe storage container, and store in the freezer for up to three months. Thaw the enchiladas in the refrigerator overnight, and reheat as directed.<\/p>\n<h2>Can you make beef enchiladas ahead of time?<\/h2>\n<p>There are two good ways to make enchiladas in advance (while avoiding soggy tortillas). You can prepare the beef mixture and the enchilada sauce a day ahead, and store each in a separate airtight container in the refrigerator. When you&#8217;re ready to bake, assemble and bake the enchiladas as directed.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can freeze the unbaked enchiladas. Follow the assembly directions, but do not add the sauce on top. Cover the baking dish, and transfer it to the freezer. Store the remaining sauce in a separate freezer-safe container. Store in the freezer for up to three months. To use, partially thaw the enchiladas in the refrigerator overnight. Remove the baking dish from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Top with the remaining sauce, and bake as directed.<\/p>\n<h2>Beef Enchiladas Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1970814\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Beef-Enchiladas_FT24_10248_EC_011224_2.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Served the Beef Enchiladas on a plate with toppings with drink on side\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How do you keep beef enchiladas from getting soggy?<\/h3>\n<p>The best way to keep beef enchiladas from getting soggy is to use the recommended amount of sauce. Don&#8217;t roll the sauce inside the tortillas, either, as too much sauce can cause the tortillas to absorb extra moisture, leading to a soggy mess. Instead, coat the bottom of the casserole dish with a layer of enchilada sauce. Then pour just enough sauce over the top to coat the tortillas.<\/p>\n<h3>What do you serve with beef enchiladas?<\/h3>\n<p>Serve ground beef enchiladas with your favorite garnishes, such as cherry tomatoes, red onions, jalapenos and sliced avocado. You can serve them with your favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/mexican-side-dishes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/mexican-side-dishes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">Mexican side dishes<\/a> like street corn or refried beans. Or keep things light, and pair them with a salad like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/tomato-avocado-and-grilled-corn-salad\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/tomato-avocado-and-grilled-corn-salad\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">tomato, avocado and corn salad<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you substitute corn tortillas in this recipe?<\/h3>\n<p>You can use either flour or corn tortillas to make beef enchiladas\u2014your choice! We use flour tortillas because they\u2019re easier to roll up, but corn tortillas work just as well. Be sure to fry the corn tortillas before filling them. The oil protects the delicate corn from absorbing too much sauce (and becoming soggy). Heat an inch of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-oils-frying\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-oils-frying\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">fryer oil<\/a> in a large skillet. When it&#8217;s hot enough to bubble, add one tortilla at a time. Cook the tortilla for 10 seconds on each side, then transfer to a rack or paper towel to drain. When they&#8217;re all fried, fill and roll as directed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our crowd-pleasing beef enchiladas recipe features a homemade enchilada sauce and a spiced ground beef filling.

I also didn't add the salt in the recipe as other reviewers suggested. The salt flavor was perfect. My husband also bought the HUGE tortillas so I still had to cut them off because it was too much tortilla. I used 7 tortillas but they I cut about 1\/3 off of them. I put in a little over 1\/2 cup meat in each of them and also used a lot more cheese in the recipe and on top. We loved the jalape\u00f1os and red onion on the top. I wish I put avocado on top too.
