directions

  • First you want to clean the dried chillies thoroughly taking out all the seeds inside.
  • Second you want to put the chilies in a medium sized sauce pan with just enough water to cover up the chilies.
  • After the water is in the saucepan put it over the stove on med-high heat.
  • You'll know when the chilies are ready when the water is a dark red color and has a nice smoky smell to it.
  • Wash and cut the tomato in half and place it in a blender along with the chilies and the water it was cooked inches.
  • Add the chicken/beef broth as well into the blender. and blend thoroughly.
  • Place the mixture back in a bigger saucepan and wait for it to start simmering.
  • While the sauce is going into a simmer you can shred the 1 lb of cheese if you didn't buy it shredded already.
  • Once the sauce is simmering add in the shredded cheese and stir.
  • Pour onto your enchiladas and enjoy. :].
