- 2–3 cups Shredded Birria Meat (Substitute with beef or hearty vegetables for variations.)
- 1 cup Birria Broth (Use homemade for authenticity or store-bought as a time-saver.)
- 10–12 count Corn Tortillas (Flour tortillas can be used as a substitute in a pinch.)
- 2 cups Cheese (e.g., Oaxaca or mozzarella) (Aged cheddar works well for a bolder flavor.)
- 1 cup Chopped Onion (Offers freshness and a crisp texture.)
- 1/2 cup Fresh Cilantro (Feel free to skip if you’re not a fan.)
- 2 count Lime Wedges (Squeeze over the top before serving.)
- Prepare the Birria by cooking your choice of meat slowly in a mixture of spices and birria broth for about 2-3 hours until tender.
- Soften the tortillas in a large skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or microwave them for 20-30 seconds.
- Assemble the enchiladas by placing a generous amount of shredded birria meat and a sprinkle of cheese in the center of each warmed tortilla.
- Bake the enchiladas in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 20-25 minutes, until the top is bubbly and golden brown.
- Garnish and serve the enchiladas topped with chopped onion, cilantro, and lime wedges on the side.
