Creamy Beef and Mushroom Enchiladas – A Comfort Food Favorite!
Enchiladas are a beloved dish with countless variations, but the creamy beef and mushroom version takes it to the next level. This indulgent recipe blends ground beef, mushrooms, and a creamy sauce to create a filling that’s wrapped in soft tortillas and baked in a rich enchilada sauce.
Ingredients
Filling: Ground beef, sautéed with onions, garlic, and mushrooms, creates a savory base. Seasoned with cumin, chili powder, and smoked paprika, the filling is rich and flavorful. Sour cream and cream cheese make it extra creamy.
Sauce: A combination of enchilada sauce, heavy cream, and chicken broth creates a luscious, smooth coating for the enchiladas.
Preparation :
Prepare the Filling: Brown the ground beef, then add onions, garlic, and mushrooms. Season with cumin and chili powder, then stir in sour cream and cream cheese for a creamy texture.
Assemble the Enchiladas: Warm tortillas slightly to make them pliable, then spoon the filling into each tortilla. Roll up the tortillas and arrange them in a baking dish. Pour the sauce over the top and sprinkle with shredded Monterey Jack cheese.
Bake: Cover the dish with foil and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving and Variations
Serve these enchiladas with sour cream, fresh cilantro, and a side of Mexican rice or beans. For a lighter option, swap the beef for ground turkey or chicken. You can also add some diced green chilies for an extra kick.
