How to Make Breakfast Enchilada Ranchero

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-low heat in a large skillet. Add the lightly beaten eggs and cook, stirring occasionally, until set. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, brown 1 pound of ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Add 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to the ground beef. Stir to combine.
  4. Pour in 1/4 cup beef broth and cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid evaporates.
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour 3/4 cup of salsa into the bottom of a 13x9 inch baking dish.
  6. Place approximately 1/8 cup of the ground beef and 1/8 cup of the scrambled eggs in the center of each tortilla.
  7. Roll up the tortillas tightly and place them seam-down in the prepared baking dish.
  8. Pour the remaining 3/4 cup of salsa over the enchiladas. Sprinkle generously with 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the enchiladas are heated through.
