Dads Enchiladas Recipes

MY DAD'S ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees. You will need a 9 x 13 casserole dish. Spray it lightly with non-stick cooking oil. Brown the burger and the onion in a large frying pan. When meat is totally browned, drain and set aside to cool.
• In a 10 inch (or so) skillet heat about 1/4 cup corn oil. Using tongs, fry one tortilla at a time in the oil for about 3-5 seconds on each side. If the tortilla starts to bubble up and harden you've fried it too long. Keep it limp. Note: The tortilla will be very hot after it is fried. I keep a small bowl of ice water nearby or leave the cold water trickling in the kitchen sink to cool my fingers. You'll learn fast how to handle them, lol.
• Using the tongs, move the tortilla to a flat surface like a cutting board. Place two tablespoons burger onion mix and one strip cheese on the tortilla, roll it up and place in a casserole dish seam side down. Line them up either way. My wife Vickie and I do this as a team, one frying the tortillas and one rolling. Repeat until all the enchiladas are lined up in the casserole dish.
• Pour the chili over the enchiladas. Sprinkle left over hamburger on top. You can also spread some of your favorite grated cheese on top. Bake about 30 minutes until you think the cheese has melted. Serve with your favorite hot sauce.

DADS CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• 1. Cut up chicken to bite size pieces and place in big skillet. Add all of the sour cream and spices.Dad puts in Salt, Pepper, Cayenne and Red Pepper flakes. Since I can't handle spicy I put in paprika and Lemon Pepper instead, so it's really all according to your taste.
• 2. Periodically put a handful of the shredded cheese from time to time and cook down until theres virtually no liquid in the pan. Let cool.
• 3. Place chicken mixture in the middle of tortilla and wrap like you would a burrito and place in baking dish. When done pour about a cup or 2 of the Bloody Mary mix(I like to drench mine in the stuff) m on top of the Enchiladas.Cook at 350 for 30 minutes.
