Savory Shredded Beef Enchiladas

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Shredded Beef Enchiladas.

1. Step 1

   To start your delicious beef dish, grab a large saucepan and place the beef chuck roast inside.

2. Step 2

   Pour in enough water to cover the meat, then cover the pot with a snug lid.

3. Step 3

   Let it simmer gently on low heat for about 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to begin mingling.

4. Step 4

   After that, turn up the heat to medium-high and brown the beef on all sides.

5. Step 5

   Once the water has evaporated, it’s time to add some flavor! Pour in beef broth, a splash of red wine vinegar, and sprinkle in chili powder and ground cumin.

6. Step 6

   Cover the pot tightly again and reduce the heat to low.

7. Step 7

   Let it simmer for 1.

8. Step 8

   5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is so tender that it practically falls apart at the touch of a fork.

9. Step 9

   When it’s done, use two forks to shred the beef right in the pan, and let it cool to room temperature.

10. Step 10

    While the beef is cooling, let’s prepare a creamy cheese sauce.

11. Step 11

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the chopped onion until it’s soft but not browned.

12. Step 12

    Stir in the diced green chilies and sprinkle in some flour, cooking for about 2 minutes while stirring constantly to get rid of that raw flour taste.

13. Step 13

    Now, add the shredded Monterey Jack cheese and a dollop of sour cream to the skillet.

14. Step 14

    Lower the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring often until the cheese melts into a smooth, luscious sauce.

15. Step 15

    Set this aside to cool a bit.

16. Step 16

    Next, it’s time to crisp up those tortillas! In a separate large skillet, heat some oil over medium-high heat.

17. Step 17

    Using tongs, carefully dip each tortilla into the hot oil for about 30 seconds on each side until they’re nice and crispy.

18. Step 18

    Once done, drain them on a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any excess oil.

19. Step 19

    Now, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) so it’s ready for the final bake.

20. Step 20

    Take each tortilla and spread about 1/4 cup of that creamy cheese sauce down the center.

21. Step 21

    Top it off with roughly 1/4 cup of the shredded beef.

22. Step 22

    Roll up the tortillas tightly and place them seam-side down in an 8x11-inch baking dish.

23. Step 23

    Repeat this process until all your tortillas, beef, and sauce are used up.

24. Step 24

    Finally, sprinkle the remaining Monterey Jack cheese generously over the rolled tortillas.

25. Step 25

    Pop the dish into your preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the cheese is beautifully melted and bubbling.

26. Step 26

    The aroma wafting through your kitchen will be irresistible! Enjoy your hearty, cheesy beef dish that’s sure to impress family and friends alike.
