Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • 2 pounds ground beef

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 2 (4 ounce) cans chopped green chilies

  • 1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning

  • 1 (16 ounce) container sour cream

  • 2 (10.5 ounce) cans cream of chicken soup

  • 12 flour tortillas

  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

  • 1 small tomato, chopped

  • 1 ½ cups shredded lettuce

  • ¼ cup black olives, sliced

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Cook and stir ground beef, onion, 1 can green chiles, and taco seasoning in a large skillet over medium-high heat until meat is browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain excess fat.

  3. Stir together sour cream, cream of chicken soup, and 1 can green chiles in a saucepan over medium-low heat until warm, about 10 minutes.

  4. Pour about half of warmed sour cream mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  5. Spoon ground beef mixture in the center of a tortilla. Roll tortillas and place on top of sour cream mixture in the 9x13-inch baking dish. Pour remaining sour cream mixture over tortillas and top with Cheddar cheese.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until hot and bubbling, about 35 minutes.

  7. Top enchiladas with lettuce, tomatoes, olives.

Cook's Note:

You can adjust the green chilies to taste and use different types of cheese and toppings. Kids love this.
