Simple Perfect Enchiladas
Recipe courtesy of Ree Drummond
Level: Easy
Total: 1 hr 15 min
Prep: 30 min
Cook: 45 min
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients
Sauce:
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
One 28-ounce can enchilada or Mexican red sauce
2 cups chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Meat:
1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
The Rest:
Canola oil, for frying
10 to 14 corn tortillas
Two 4-ounce cans diced green chilies
1 cup chopped green onions
1/2 cup chopped black olives
3 cups grated sharp Cheddar cheese
Cilantro, for garnish
Directions
For the sauce:
In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the canola oil and flour. Whisk together and allow to bubble for 1 minute. Pour in the red sauce, chicken broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer while you prepare the other ingredients.
For the meat:
While the sauce is simmering, brown the ground beef with the onions in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain the fat, add the salt and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and set aside.
For the rest:
In a small skillet over medium heat, heat some canola oil. Lightly fry the tortillas just until soft. Do not crisp. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat until all the tortillas have been fried.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Spread 1/2 cup of the sauce in the bottom of a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Next, one at a time, dip each tortilla into the sauce. Set the sauce-soaked tortilla on a plate. Place on some of the meat mixture, chilies, green onions and black olives. Top with a generous portion of grated Cheddar. Roll up the tortilla to contain the filling inside.
Place the tortilla seam side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas and pour the remaining sauce over the top. End with a generous sprinkling of cheese and any other bits of chiles, green onions or olives you have left over from the filling.
Bake the enchiladas for 20 minutes, or until bubbly. Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the top and serve.

I Prefer to make my own chile sauce, no olives or green Chiles !!!
Ain't no way in hell I would've let "Micky" drive me around 😳I live in reality!
Blessings beautiful family!
really those are not how make enchiladas en Mexico you have to use only guajillo chile colorado those are no the tipical enchiladas and we never make the enchiladas with ground beef wacala😮
I've never made them that way, but I sure will try that now with the olives, green onions and green chiles for sure! Sounds so delicious!
RIP Mikee.
❤️👍
Looks good but I really love your other enchilada sauce recipe. I'd like to see it again that episode. It's worth dry chile powder and stuffing is cream cheese with shredded cheese. They are AMAZING!!!!!!❤😋😋😋😋
I do so miss seeing your old shows when you did allot of cooking for the family and ranch hands!!!!
no thank’s thats not enchilafas
What racists comments has she said about Hispanic people? Sister to sister with racist Paula Deen.
Not enchiladas
I thought Rhee passed away. Her husband said so
She’s not dead. Just had a new grand baby and posted a pic yesterday.
This is the All American person that sells all her products made in China
If you want a quick enchilada sauce, you could use the can stuff. However, I think making enchilada sauce is best. It's relatively easy to make and tastes so much better than the can sauce. The homemade sauce has a richer rustic flavor to it. The can sauce it sweeter with a slight tang to it, but it's also plainer.
Oh wonderful! He fathers mothers husbands sisters husband cousins neighbors friend made the recipe! Thank God it’s authentic! Stop appropriating our Latino culture please.
Esto muy sabroso pero de mexicanas no tienen nada. Jajajjaja
Thank God I find your recipe and look beautiful God bless you 💖 thanks for sharing recipe 😊
Awe 😢❤❤❤
Scary ride lol😮😅
Ree💖, Thank you so much for making enchiladas for your Brother! My Mother always made them But I didn’t pay attention. Continued blessings!
It's all in the technique. My Mom makes her enchiladas the easy way, torn/cut up tortillas in a casserole layered with all the same ingredients, no rolling, no dipping in oil (Just makes 'em too greasy! )and standing over a hot stove for an hour. Just make your ranchero sauce and layer the tortilla pieces, sauce and cheese or any other ingredients you want, onion, shredded chicken , ground beef, Hatch Chilis, anything… in the oven at 400 for 25 mins or so and so easy to dish up. I will never go back to rolling them up. And by the way, my family is 6 gen Tejano. We make our sauce with 4 Tbls lard, 4 Tbls chili powder, 2 tsp camino, a pinch of salt and 3 Tbls flour to make a roux, add water to fill your skillet and cook until thickened. Then add a small jar of Old El Paso Taco sauce. No canned stuff. We've made it that way for at least 50 years.
Canola oil? yuck
It’s funny how different cultures make enchiladas the way they want instead of the original authentic enchiladas that Mexicans make. no one makes better enchiladas then the Mexicans because the stuff caucasians use put in their recipe we don’t even use those those ingredients in our enchilada sauce. But it was nice try.
I respect and loved this lady but this enchiladas are everything but Mexican. They’re Tex Mex.
Oil is so bad for you. Will you get the same results with avocado oil?
Canola oil? I use olive oil & butter.
Mean comments on this one!
Thank you Ree for shsring this scrumptious meal. Thanks also for sharing some family too. How warming. Love mexican recipes as my father was Sicilian & liked spicy. Love your recipes & your lovely dimples & happy smile. Old lady from NE Tennessee. Never to old to learn bew things.God 🙌 ❤😂🎉😊
This video made my day and Mike is such a sweetheart.
What kind of cheese is in the enchiladas and what kind of enchilada sauce is it? I want to re-create this.

Also, finally, what kind of chilies are they?
Those are definitely American enchiladas.
So sad that she is not with us anymore. But she is in spirit. I will always remember her ❤❤❤❤
