How to Make My Famous Enchiladas
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
- Stir in the refried beans, chopped bell peppers, onion, and one can of enchilada sauce. Mix well.
- Season with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes to taste.
- Place about 1/2 cup of cooked rice in the center of each tortilla.
- Top with a heaping spoonful of the beef mixture.
- Sprinkle with shredded cheese and roll up tightly.
- Place the enchiladas seam-down in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish or a deep tray.
- Repeat until all ingredients are used or you run out of tortillas. If you have leftover filling, pour it over the top of the enchiladas in the baking dish.
- Pour the remaining can of enchilada sauce evenly over the enchiladas.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- Add the remaining shredded cheese on top and bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are lightly browned.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with shredded lettuce and sour cream.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
