1 lb lean ground beef Choose lean beef to keep the dish lighter and healthier.
8 pieces flour or corn tortillas Use your preferred type of tortilla for wrapping the filling.
2 cups enchilada sauce Store-bought or homemade, this sauce adds flavor and moisture.
1 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese Cheese brings creaminess and richness to the enchiladas.
1 medium onion, diced Onions add sweetness and depth to the beef mixture.
2 cloves garlic, minced Garlic enhances the overall flavor profile beautifully.
1 tsp cumin Cumin provides an earthy warmth essential in Mexican cuisine.
1 tsp chili powder Adds a kick of spice and robustness to your enchiladas.
to taste Sour cream Serve on top for a creamy contrast to the spiciness of the dish.

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) so it's hot and ready when you're done preparing your enchiladas.
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef along with diced onions until they are translucent, which should take about 5-7 minutes.
Add minced garlic, cumin, and chili powder to the skillet; sauté everything together for another minute until fragrant.
Spoon generous portions of the beef mixture onto each tortilla, roll them tightly, and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
Pour the enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas and then sprinkle shredded cheese on top for that delicious melt.
Bake uncovered in your preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until bubbly and golden brown on top.
