Simple Perfect Enchiladas

I recently discovered these enchiladas from The Pioneer Woman's cookbook. They are so good and everyone in my family loves them, yes even the kids, which is always a plus! I often make chicken enchiladas, so it is nice to have a change with the beef. They are on the menu again this week for us. Yummy! And there are pictures on the PW website if you like that sort of thing, which I do. I serve with corn casserole with green chilies and chips and salsa. Also, I omit the olives as a personal preference.

Preparation Instructions
Step #1 – The Sauce In a large saucepan over medium heat, add oil and flour and whisk together to make a paste, cooking for one minute. Pour in the red sauce, chicken broth, cilantro, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 30-45 minutes.
Step #2 – The Meat Brown the meat with onions in a skillet. Drain off fat. Stir in 2 cans diced green chilies and seasoned salt. Set aside.
Step #3 – Tortillas Heat canola oil in a small skillet over medium heat. One by one, using tongs, fry tortillas in oil until soft, not crisp – about 30 seconds per side. Remove to a paper—towel lined plate. Repeat until all tortillas have been fried.
Step #4 – Assembly Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour ½ cup red sauce in bottom of baking pan. Spread to even out. Dip each tortilla into red sauce, then remove to work surface. Spoon meat, a little grated cheese, a little black olives, and green onions in the center of tortilla. Roll up and place, seam down, in baking pan. Repeat until pan is filled. Pour extra red sauce over enchiladas. Top with remaining cheddar cheese.
Bake for 20 minutes or until bubbly. Sprinkle cilantro over enchiladas before serving.
