Inspired by Sam Sifton’s popular Enchiladas Con Carne in the New York Times, these family-style enchiladas are seriously delicious. You begin by making a quick chili con carne, or chili sauce, with lean ground beef, onions, peppers, spices, tomato sauce, and broth. If you enjoy the chili con carne in this recipe, you will also love my Southwestern-flavored stuffed peppers, which have a similar filling and cheesy topping. Tenderize the Meat In a medium bowl, combine the beef, baking soda, and salt.

Mash with your hands until evenly combined and let sit on the counter for at least 20 minutes. As it rests, the baking soda raises the pH of the meat, helping to lock in moisture and making the beef tender. Step 2: Prep While the beef rests, chop the onion, jalapeño, and garlic and prep your other ingredients. Step 3: Make the Sauce Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the meat. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the browned meat to a plate. Add the onion, jalapeño pepper, and garlic to the skillet.
