SIMPLE PERFECT ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the canola oil and flour. Whisk together and allow to bubble for 1 minute. Pour in the red sauce, chicken broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer while you prepare the other ingredients.
• While the sauce is simmering, brown the ground beef with the onions in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain the fat, add the salt and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and set aside.
• In a small skillet over medium heat, heat some canola oil. Lightly fry the tortillas just until soft. Do not crisp. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat until all the tortillas have been fried.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Spread 1/2 cup of the sauce in the bottom of a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Next, one at a time, dip each tortilla into the sauce. Set the sauce-soaked tortilla on a plate. Place on some of the meat mixture, chilies, green onions and black olives. Top with a generous portion of grated Cheddar. Roll up the tortilla to contain the filling inside.
• Place the tortilla seam side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas and pour the remaining sauce over the top. End with a generous sprinkling of cheese and any other bits of chiles, green onions or olives you have left over from the filling.
• Bake the enchiladas for 20 minutes, or until bubbly. Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the top and serve.

ELKILADAS -- ELK OR BEEF ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• For the filling, mix together 1 teaspoon of the salt, and the pepper, paprika, oregano, and garlic in a small bowl, and set aside. Heat the bacon fat or oil in a large skillet over medium heat, add onion, and cook, stirring frequently, for about 3 minutes. Add meat, sprinkling with the remaining salt, and continue cooking over medium heat, until about medium doneness (there should be a little pink showing on red meat.
• Sprinkle the spice mixture over the meat, and continue cooking for another 3 minutes. Add the jalapenos, and cook another couple of minutes until the meat is thoroughly done. Check for seasoning, and add a little more salt or pepper if needed. Squeeze 1/2 lime over the top, give it a stir, and set aside.
• For the sauce, if you are using fresh tomatillos, remove the wrappers and simmer in the stock, in a medium saucepan, until they turn from bright to drab green. If you are using canned, drain and add to broth in the saucepan. Heat until warmed through.
• In a separate skillet, saute the onions and garlic in the oil until onions are soft -- about 3-5 minutes. Turn off heat. Remove the tomatillos from the broth (take off the stems if they're still attached) and put into a food processor, along with the chipotle pepper and onion mixture. Puree until almost smooth. Return to the skillet over medium-low heat, and whisk in the broth. After it gets bubbly, simmer for about 10 minutes, adding salt, cilantro, and juice from 1/2 lime in the last 2 minutes of cooking.
• To assemble the enchiladas, dip a tortilla into the sauce for 20-30 seconds, to soften it. Place tortilla on a plate, and put a heaping spoonful of the filling in the middle (meanwhile, put another tortilla in the sauce). Roll the tortilla around the filling, and place, seam side down, into a greased 9x13 baking dish. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas and filling, arranging them in rows in the pan, however you can fit them inches If you have any filling left over, you can sprinkle it over the top of the enchiladas. Pour the rest of the sauce over the whole thing, and then sprinkle with the grated cheese. At this point you can refrigerate them overnight or until you're ready to cook them, or move them directly to the oven.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes (35 min if chilled) or until throroughly heated through and cheese is bubbly. I like to serve these with a dollop of sour cream on top, alongside a green salad + rice and beans. They also freeze well after cooking, and can be re-heated, loosely covered, in the microwave. A little labor-intensive, but worth the wait. Hope you enjoy them!
