Ingredients

• 3 cups Shredded roast beef
• 8 pieces Flour tortillas
• 2 cups Shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2.5 cups Chicken broth
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 4 ounces Diced green chiles (canned)
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 cup Chopped fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the all-purpose flour and whisk continuously for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.

Step 3

Slowly pour in the chicken broth while whisking, making sure there are no lumps. Continue cooking for 3-4 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.

Step 4

Stir in the sour cream, diced green chiles, ground cumin, and garlic powder. Simmer gently for another 2 minutes, then remove the sauce from heat.

Step 5

Set aside 1/2 cup of the sauce to use as a topping later.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded roast beef and 1 cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese. Mix well.

Step 7

Place a flour tortilla on a flat surface. Add about 1/4 cup of the beef and cheese mixture to the center of the tortilla. Roll the tortilla tightly and place it seam-side down into the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

Step 8

Pour the remaining sour cream sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas, making sure to cover them completely.

Step 9

Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese over the top of the sauced tortillas.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Remove the enchiladas from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Optionally, garnish with fresh chopped cilantro before serving.

Step 12

Serve warm and enjoy your creamy, cheesy Roast Beef Sour Cream Enchiladas!
