Shredded Beef Enchiladas

Ingredients

• 3 pounds beef chuck roast
• 0.25 cups water
• 1.5 cups beef broth
• 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons chili powder
• 1 tablespoon ground cumin

Instructions

1. 1

   Cook beef: Place beef roast in a large saucepan; pour in water. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and simmer on low for 30 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and brown beef on all sides. Once water has evaporated, add broth, vinegar, chili powder, and cumin. Cover tightly and reduce heat to low. Simmer until beef falls apart when lifted, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Use 2 forks or your fingers to shred beef in the pan; allow to cool to room temperature.

2. 2

   Make sauce: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté onion in the hot skillet until just soft, not browned. Mix in green chilies and flour. Stir constantly for 2 minutes to cook the flour taste out. Stir in Monterey Jack cheese and sour cream. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring often, until cheese is melted and incorporated. Set sauce aside to cool.

3. 3

   Prepare tortillas: Heat oil in a separate large skillet over medium-high heat. Use tongs to dip tortillas, one at a time, into hot oil until crisp, about 30 seconds per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

4. 4

   Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

5. 5

   Spread 1/4 cup sauce down the center of a tortilla. Top with about 1/4 cup shredded beef. Roll up and place seam-side down in an 8x11-inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas, sauce, and beef. Sprinkle Monterey Jack cheese over rolled tortillas.

6. 6

   Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and bubbling, about 30 minutes.
