Ingredients
- 2-3lb chuck roast
- 1 large onion, peeled then roughly chopped
- 6 cloves garlic, peeled then smashed
- 15oz can gluten-free beef broth
- 1 Tablespoon chili powder
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- lots of garlic salt and pepper
- 4oz can chopped green chiles
- 10-12 gluten-free corn tortillas
- 8oz shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
- 2-10oz cans gluten-free enchilada sauce or 1 batch homemade sauce (recipe link in notes below)
- Toppings: salsa, avocado, sour cream, cilantro
Directions
-
im large pieces of excess fat from roast then cut into 6-8 big hunks. Add onion, garlic, and beef broth into the bottom of a 5.5 or 6 quart crock pot then nestle beef into mixture. Sprinkle in chili powder, cumin, garlic salt, and pepper and then place the lid on top and cook on low for 6-7 hours, or until beef shreds easily. Remove beef then shred and place into a large bowl with enough cooking liquid to make it juicy, but not so much that it’s dripping. Stir in green chiles. Discard remaining cooking liquid.
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees then spray a 9×13″ pan or two smaller pans with nonstick spray, and then spread a couple Tablespoons of enchilada sauce in the bottom. Divide shredded cheese in half, reserving half for topping the enchiladas.
-
Wrap half the tortillas in a damp paper towel then microwave for 30 seconds. Spread about 1/4 cup (just eyeball it) shredded beef across the center of each tortilla then top with 1 Tablespoon shredded cheese and roll. Place seam side down in the prepared pan then repeat with remaining ingredients. Pour remaining enchilada sauce on top, then top with remaining cheese.
-
Generously spray a large piece of foil with nonstick spray then place sprayed side down on the pan. Bake for 20 minutes then remove foil and bake for 5-10 more minutes or until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbly. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving with toppings.
-
To freeze: Wrap the unbaked enchiladas with plastic wrap then foil, and then freeze. Thaw for 24 hours in the fridge then remove the plastic wrap, reapply foil that’s been sprayed with nonstick spray, and then bake as directed above.
