  • This is a modern version of enchiladas, BEEF ENCHILADA CASSEROLE is a meal in itself, I serve it with the traditional refried beans and mexican rice or with a simple salad and avocado, and you can't forget the sour cream...the key ingredient for enchiladas is the rich flavor of the chili powder, paprika, and corn tortillas, and it's so much quicker in a no roll casserole. BEEF ENCHILADA CASSEROLE can be made the day before then refrigerated until ready to use and it will definitely be a hit in your home.
    ● CHECK CASSEROLE IN THE OVEN AFTER 25 MINUTES , IF BUBBLY, ITS READY OR LEAVE IT A LITTLE LONGER. (REMOVE FROM OVEN WHEN BUBBLY)
    MEAT INGREDIENTS
    1 LB. 80/20 ground beef (drained)
    1/2 tsp garlic powder
    1/2 tsp onion powder
    1 tsp pepper
    1 tsp salt
    2 TBSP canned green chilies
    ENCHILADA SAUCE
    3 Tbsp melted butter (unsalted butter) (you can add little bit more if needed)
    3 Tbsp All purpose flour
    2 1/2 Tbsp chili powder (I used Gebhardts)
    1 Tbsp paprika
    3 C. Chicken Broth (low sodium)
    2 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion powder
    1 tsp ground cumin
    2 tsp tomato paste
    1 tsp chicken bouillon (you can add more if you like)
    1 tsp oregano
    1/2 tsp sugar
    1/2 tsp pepper (you decide)
    TASTE AND ADJUST
    TORTILLAS
    3/4 C. vegetable oil
    12 corn tortillas (depending on your casserole size)
    ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS
    3 C. Colby Jack Cheese (freshly grated)

    Today is my husband’s 75th birthday, and he requested “his girl, Rachel’s” enchiladas. We have made many of your recipes, and have loved every one of them. I only began cooking during the pandemic, and still am very much a novice. I really appreciate the care you take to explain each step. You’re an excellent teacher. Also-my husband and I say, “Just like that!” to each other constantly. We think you’re adorable! x

I seared some chuck roast cubes then added your sauce to it, simmered 45 minutes on low stirring often. I use the street taco tortillas with extra sharp shredded cheddar. It was amazing !!!

    Rachel, your cooking reminds me of a sweet neighbor I had in Arizona. She loved to cook, and to share her meals with loved ones.
    I was lucky enough to be able to buy the ingredients, she had fixed income, and she would do the cooking.
    As I had 2 jobs, I am retired RN, it was a wonderful trade. She would have a meal waiting for me on my "Friday", even if it was a Monday!
    So many happy memories of her cooking.
    And, because made with love, you also know her secret.

Many do so they can remain exceptional or private with family secrets to cooking authentic dishes. I also like the no wrapping of the tortillas that is so messy and time consuming.

You could use this sauce for other recipes. I add black beans , cooked rice, or red kidney beans any of these to the meat. I always drain my beans and rise well. I sometimes use more corn tortillas just to make a larger dish.. sooooooo good ..Thank you for sharing.❤️

I’m Italian and grew up in a mixed neighborhood , so I have always had many Mexican friends, but your style of cooking far exceeds all that I have been taught over these many years! You are a great teacher and your love for cooking and sharing come across with so much real humanity and warmth that I can’t believe the food channel hasn’t come calling! Love you’ God Bless you and yours!

More importantly, my husband really loved it and went back for a second helping. There is just the two of us here so I split the recipe into two small pans and froze one for another meal. Thank you for this really delicious recipe. ❤️

    Rachel, thank you so much to share a personal recipe with us. I was at the store today and I purchased items for my enchiladas, And after looking at your recipe, I’m going to make yours instead of mine… Or maybe I’ll make them both and see which one I like the best but either way I like how yours has so much less time and less ingredients for I’m sure it will be a packing flavor… Especially after reading comments.
    I am really loving the recipes that you were putting out there, I am enjoying listening to you as you cook… I feel right at home in your kitchen😊❣️, And I like all of the tips that you give us as well as how nice your videos are so that we can see exactly what’s going on up close… So many are so far away and they videotape very fast and it’s hard to catch everything and I’ve been cooking for years so if you get it past me that tells me you’re videotaping wrong.

    I absolutely ADORE your cooking videos! You are a wonderful teacher! I made this beef enchilada recipe which was DELICIOUS although I did make some mistakes which I'll recount here to help others. I mistakenly added all of the chicken broth at once to the roux so my sauce wasn't was thick and velvety as yours. Also, I used a 13" x 9" dish which was too big. I learned that 11" x 7" is the proper size. To avoid these mistakes in the future, I'll copy/paste your ingredients onto a document and then type in the instructions below so that I'll know that the chicken broth is 3 cups, DIVIDED, and that they should be added one at a time. Although you clearly demonstrate this in the video, it's hard to watch the video while cooking at the same time. Also, I found that it's necessary to measure all of the spices out ahead of time as you do since it's too rushed to try to measure while the sauce is in progress. I'll make a note of all of these tips in the instructions when I type them up and print out to have next time I make it. THANK YOU for your fabulous instructions and for all that you do to bring these videos to us!!!! You are AMAZING!!!!

The only thing I wasn't sure of was whether or not the paprika should be sweet or smoked. I ended up using smoked, so maybe that is the intent? I used chili powder I buy at Sam's Club, but ordered some Gebhardt's this afternoon and can't wait to make these again using the good stuff! This is what I grew up with in Texas, but it is not sold locally here in the Tulsa area. I absolutely LOVE the videos and the step by step instructions.

    This looks so good. I know they must be good. My mom taught me to make enchiladas basically the same way you made this, only we did cook the tortillas a little on the crispy side, and stacked then like pancakes with all the ingredients on every layer. Then we had a side of refried beans. Omg they are so delicious. My mom was born in Roswell then raised in texas. But she used to go to Juárez, they would teach her how to cook some dishes. Thank you so very much for sharing, I love watching your channel.

    DELISH! I made this for the first time for my 13 year old daughter and I last night. After the first bite, she said, "you have to make this more often! I'm having a second helping!" LOL. Absolutely wonderful!!
