From Sharon Ashe

01

Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 (10 ¾-oz.) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 (4.5-oz) can Old El Paso chopped green chiles
  • 1 (10-oz.) can Old El Paso enchilada sauce
  • 2 cups tortilla chips, broken slightly
  • 4 oz. (1 cup) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, if desired

Directions

  1. In large skillet, cook ground beef, onion and garlic over medium-high heat until beef is thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently. Drain.
  2. Stir in soup, chiles, enchilada sauce and chips. Reduce heat to medium; cook and stir 3 to 4 minutes or until thoroughly heated and bubbly.
  3. Sprinkle with cheese . Cover; cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with cilantro (optional).
  4. This recipe has the flavor of enchiladas, but is an easy one to prepare as a skillet dinner. The tortilla chips soften until their texture resembles that of corn tortillas. Use either white or yellow chips, and save a few to crush and sprinkle over the skillet for a crunchy garnish.
  5. Team this skillet casserole with corn muffins and fresh orange and lime segments.
