Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 9 ounces fresh chorizo
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- 1 recipe Homemade Enchilada Sauce
- 20 white corn tortillas
- 2 cups Monterey jack cheese shredded
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef and chorizo together. Once cooked through pour the meat through a strainer to get rid of all the grease. Return the meat to the skillet.
- Add all of the seasonings to the meat (dried oregano, salt, garlic powder, onion powder). Stir to combine.
- Prepare the tortillas for filling by heating a cast iron skillet with about 1/2 cup oil (canola or vegetable oil). Once the oil is hot enough that it sizzles when you dip in the tortilla then gently place one tortilla at a time into the oil. Allow the tortilla to fry in the oil for about 10 seconds, just long enough to get a slight coloring. Then flip the tortilla and fry the other side. Remove the tortilla, wrap it in a towel to retain the heat and continue with the remaining tortillas.
- If you want to dip each tortilla into the enchilada sauce this is the time to do it, then add the fillings.
- Spoon about 1/4 cup of the beef and chorizo mixture onto the tortillas, then roll and place in a baking dish, seam side down. Continue until all the tortillas are filled.
- Pour enchilada sauce over the top of the enchiladas.
- Bake at 350 for about 15 minutes, then open the oven, sprinkle cheese on the top of the enchiladas and continue baking for another 5 minutes.
- Serve warm with rice and beans, or a side salad for a complete meal.
