Preparation Steps
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Drain off any excess grease.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the enchilada sauce, chili powder, and cumin. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes.
In a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spread half of the tortilla pieces on the bottom.
Spoon half of the beef mixture over the tortillas.
Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef mixture.
Repeat the layers with the remaining tortillas, beef mixture, and cheese.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let it stand for a few minutes before serving. Serve with sour cream and optional cilantro.
Notes
This casserole can be made ahead of time and refrigerated. Reheat in the oven until warmed through.
