Instructions
Easy Skillet Beef Enchilada Recipe
- Bring your medium or large skillet with olive oil to medium heat. Once the oil is warm, add the onions and cook 1 or two minutes until they are fragrant but still firm.
- Add your beef and cook until the beef is completely browned. Then, add your black beans. Season with chili powder, cumin, and garlic and then stir well.
- Reduce the temperature to low and add your enchilada sauce and salsa. Cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens. Option to simmer on low, covered, for 20 minutes or if your skillet is oven safe, cover it and allow it to sit in a warm 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.
- Remove from the heat, option to stir in your tortillas or leave them out and serve with tortilla chips instead (my preferred method)! Top with avocado, sour cream, cheese, and enjoy!
