Enchilada Sauce


To celebrate cinco de mayo this year I wanted to make enchiladas.  Usually, we use enchilada sauce in cans, but I've never found one that is as good as the enchiladas in a restaurant.  So it was time make my own. I combined these two recipes and gave it my own twist..  Given that my husband is really into craft beer, I decided to add some beer to our sauce.  We used a chili stout, and I think it was a really great choice.  Here's what we did:

Ingredients:

  • 15oz can tomato sauce
  • 6oz can tomato paste
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1/2 cup beer
  • 1 tablespoon adobo sauce
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ancho chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil on medium heat.   Once boiling, reduce heat  to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
