Fajita Enchilada Skillet

cook:

30 min

4 servings

Don't think too much about the name, just go with it. It's everything I want in fajitas and enchiladas, but without actually having to turn on the oven. Once everything is chopped it only takes 20 minutes to throw this together and makes fantastic leftovers!

Ingredients

2 zucchini, chopped into 1/2 in half moons
2 bell peppers, sliced into 1/2 in strips
1 red onion, sliced into 1/4 in strips
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 tbsp fresh oregano finely chopped or 1 tsp dried
1 tbsp oil (I used tallow)
1 lb ground beef (I used a beef organ mix)
5 oz package boc choy or spinach
15 oz enchilada sauce (I used siete)
8 oz shredded cheddar cheese (I used Raw Farm Usa Jalapeño Cheddar)
Tortillas
Cilantro
Lime
Avocado

Directions

1.
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the beef in dollops - essentially trying to get it spread evenly across the pan with some space between the pieces so they brown instead of steam. Season with salt and pepper and let cook undisturbed for 3-5 minutes - until pretty darn browned!
1 tbsp oil (I used tallow)
1 lb ground beef (I used a beef organ mix)
2.
Break up the beef and continue to cook for a couple more minutes - until little or no pink remains. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
3.
Add the onions, peppers, zucchini, and garlic to the pan and toss in the fat. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Let cook until the onions and peppers are softened and zucchini is browning in spots - about 5-7 minutes. Stir frequently.
2 zucchini, chopped into 1/2 in half moons
2 bell peppers, sliced into 1/2 in strips
1 red onion, sliced into 1/4 in strips
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
4.
Add in the boc choy and oregano and toss until wilted.
1 tbsp fresh oregano finely chopped or 1 tsp dried
5 oz package boc choy or spinach
5.
Add the enchilada sauce, mixie mix, and let simmer for a couple minutes to thicken.
15 oz enchilada sauce (I used siete)
6.
