Directions

  2. Continue to whisk and cook until the mixture bubbles a bit and it start to turn golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

  4. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

  2. In a bowl, mix together the shredded meat and 3/4 cup of the green chile enchilada sauce.
  3. Wrap the corn tortillas in a paper towel and microwave for about 30 seconds, or until they are warm and flexible.
  4. Spread a little bit of enchilada sauce in the bottom of a baking dish. Fill each corn tortilla with about 1/4 cup of the meat mixture, roll it up, and place it in the baking dish.
  5. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the enchiladas and sprinkle with the cheese.
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the sauce is bubbly, the cheese is melted, and the enchiladas are heated through.
