Description

A delicious and easy-to-make Cheesy Ground Beef Enchilada Skillet that combines ground beef, beans, and cheese for a satisfying dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (10 ounces) diced tomatoes with green chilies
  • 1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • Tortilla chips for serving
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
  • Sour cream (optional, for serving)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
  3. Stir in the black beans, diced tomatoes with green chilies, corn, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let simmer for 5 minutes.
  4. Reduce heat to low and sprinkle the cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses evenly over the top. Cover the skillet and let it cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  5. Remove from heat and serve hot with tortilla chips on the side. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a dollop of sour cream if desired.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños or a splash of hot sauce to the skillet.
  • To make it a vegetarian dish, substitute the ground beef with 1 cup of quinoa or additional beans.
