🌶️ spicy Spice

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 2 cups enchilada sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 2

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the beef, and cook until the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Stir in the cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat.

  5. 5

    Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet or microwave to make them pliable.

  6. 6

    Fill each tortilla with the beef mixture, roll up tightly, and place seam side down in a baking dish.

  7. 7

    Pour the enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas, and sprinkle both cheeses on top.

  8. 8

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
