This is a great one for a New Year’s Eve gathering or some end of the season football! Not only is it sure to please, but it can be prepped beforehand, and will soak up three times its weight in alcohol. These quantities are plenty for a group of four to five, double or triple as required.
In a small sauce pot, heat a can of enchilada sauce on low.
You could add three to four finely chopped canned chipotle peppers in adobo
sauce, but not a deal breaker if you don’t. Love those things!
While that’s simmering, sauté a large shopped onion for
five minutes over medium heat in a large sauté or straight sided pan. Add a
pound of ground beef, a half a teaspoon of kosher salt, and a teaspoon each of
cumin and chili powder. Once the meat is browned, if you’re using black beans
or corn, now’s the time to stir them in.
Next, pour in the enchilada sauce along with 12 corn
tortillas cut into bite size pieces. Stir well, cover, and leave on low heat
for about fifteen minutes, stirring occasionally.
To finish, spread two cups of shredded Monterey Jack or
Mexican blend cheese and a chopped scallion over the top, then either remove
from the heat and cover, or place uncovered in a 350 oven until the cheese is
melted. Serve with your favorite salsa, and/or sour cream.
Cheers to 2022!
