Yield 3 people

Number Of Ingredients 10

For the sauce:
2 C enchilada sauce
1 C leftover smoked beef brisket, chopped
For the filling:
6 corn tortillas
1 cup leftover smoked beef brisket, chopped
1 cup spinach, chopped and slightly wilted
1 cup shredded Mexican 4-cheese blend or cheddar
You may need more for the top, depending on how cheesy you like your enchiladas.
2.5 oz goat cheese, crumbled

Steps:

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Dice up your brisket into small pieces and separate into two portions (1 cup will go into the sauce, 1 cup will go into the filling). Soften the spinach for 1-2 minutes on a skillet set to medium heat (just to slightly wilt it). Heat up the sauce in a medium skillet (wait to add the beef just before you top the enchiladas). To soften the corn tortillas - take the tortillas and dip them into the red chile sauce sauce one by one to coat them. This will help soften the tortillas so they don't break up when you roll them. It also helps infuse the tortillas with the tangy delicious sauce. Next, add your filling to the tortillas - layer about one tablespoon of the beef, spinach, shredded cheese, and a couple crumbles of the goat cheese (go light on the goat cheese or it will overpower the flavor). Roll the tortilla and layer the rolls on an 8×8″ baking dish seam side down, in one layer. Repeat with the remaining tortillas until the dish is packed. When the tortillas are all layered, add the remaining 1-cup of beef brisket to the sauce and let mix. Pour the beef soaked enchilada sauce over the top of the dish. Sprinkle with the remaining shredded cheese. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Garnish with cilantro.
