• 2. Heat large heavy non-stick skillet (I use my cast iron) to medium high heat, then add cooking oil,ground chuck, chili powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently until meat is "grey". Add onions, peppers and cilantro from food processor and cook about two more minutes. Remove from heat and set aside
• 3. Lightly grease a 9" x 13" baking dish and set aside. Place 4-6 tortillas at a time on paper towel, cover with another paper towel and place in microwave for 20 seconds to soften. (Note: You need to do this in 2 or 3 bunches or the tortillas will get cold while you are working with them) Remove from microwave and place on cutting board or large piece of waxed paper. Take one tortilla and spoon meat mixture down center, sprinkle with a small amount of grated cheese, then roll up and place "seams down" in baking dish. Continue preparing one at a time until all tortillas and meat are used. (It's okay to scrunch the tortillas together, they will still cook)
• 4. Pour the enchilada sauce over the entire dish, sprinkle remainder of cheese over top. You can add more cheese if desired (we like lots of cheese on ours) Place in oven and cook for 25-30 minutes until cheese is crusty and bubbly.
• 5. Serve with salsa, charro or refried beans, and spanish rice for an authentic Tex-Mex platter. ENJOY.

TEX MEX ENCHILADAS WITH CHILI GRAVY RECIPE

Steps:

• Brown the 80/20 ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. When browned add chopped onion and cook for about 5 minutes. (If you use leaner ground beef, you will need to add a couple of tablespoons of oil.)
• Add chili powder, cumin, oregano (Mexican oregano preferably), garlic powder, salt, and pepper and stir until seasoning covers all of the ground beef.
• Add the flour and stir in with the seasoned ground beef.
• Pour in the chicken broth and bring it up to a boil. Then lower the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. When it thickens up, then it is ready to pour over the cheese enchiladas.
• Meanwhile, heat the corn tortillas in a little oil in a hot skillet or griddle over medium heat. You want to just heat the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side, just until the corn tortillas are soft but not long enough to fry them. When the corn tortillas are soft and pliable, then remove them, drain any excess oil, and place either in a tortilla warmer or on a plate with paper towels.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Ladle about a half cup of the chili gravy into the bottom of a 9x13 pan.
• Add about 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on the lower third of a corn tortilla. Then tightly roll the corn tortilla around the cheese and place seam side down in the 9x13 baking dish. Repeat until you have rolled all enchiladas.
• Pour the remaining chili gravy over the enchiladas, and sprinkle about 1 cup of shredded cheese evenly over the top of the enchiladas.
• Bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes.
• Serve the enchiladas hot, and top with chopped onions or chopped cilantro just before serving.

CHEESE ENCHILADAS WITH CHILI GRAVY

Steps:

• To make the gravy, heat the lard or oil in a pot over medium-high heat. Whisk in the flour and stir until it's lightly browned and fragrant, about 30 seconds to a minute.
• Whisk in the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined. Pour in the broth, then whisk with the flour until well blended. Continue to whisk until the sauce thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Turn the heat to low and let the gravy simmer for 15 minutes. Add more broth or water to thin the sauce if it's too thick.
• Meanwhile, to make the enchiladas, preheat the oven to 450° F.
• Pour the vegetable oil into a baking dish or large cast-iron skillet. Place the tortillas in the baking dish (it's okay if they overlap) and make sure they are covered with the oil. Place uncovered in the oven as it heats for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the tortillas are soft and warm. Remove the tortillas from the baking dish and cover. Pour 1/2 cup of chili gravy into the dish.
• To assemble the enchiladas, take a tortilla and place 1/4 cup of the shredded cheese and 1 tablespoon of the onion down the center then roll it. Place the rolled tortilla in the baking dish, seam side down. Continue with the remaining tortillas.
• After assembling the enchiladas, evenly pour over them the rest of the chili gravy. Sprinkle on top the remaining cheese and onions. Bake uncovered for 10 minutes or until the sauce is bubbly and cheese has melted.
• Serve warm with pickled jalapeños on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F and have ready a greased 9x13" baking dish. Combine both the Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheese in a mixing bowl and set aside.

• Allow the mixture to come to a simmer, and reduce the heat as needed to maintain it. Simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Remove from the heat, ladle a scant cup of sauce across the bottom of the casserole dish, and set the remaining sauce aside.
• Working in batches of 4, wrap the corn tortillas in a damp paper towel and place them on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave for about 30 to 45 seconds, or until very pliable and soft.

• Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 5 minutes. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes, then serve and enjoy!
