Ingredients

For the Green Sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 8 ounces pork blade steak, diced
  • Garlic salt
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 4-ounce cans green chile peppers, drained and diced
  • 1 cup canned diced tomatoes
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

For the Red Sauce:

  • 1 cup New Mexico red chili powder
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • Garlic salt
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 8 ounces beef top sirloin, diced

For the Enchiladas:

  • 12 6-inch corn tortillas, toasted or lightly fried
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Cooking spray
  • 4 large eggs
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  • Shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes, for garnish

Directions

Make the green sauce: Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Season the pork with garlic salt and pepper, add to the pan and brown on all sides. Add the minced garlic and cook 30 seconds, then add the chiles, tomatoes, red pepper flakes and 3 cups water. Simmer until the pork is tender, about 1 hour. Combine the flour and 1 cup water in a blender until smooth, then whisk into the sauce and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 5 more minutes.

Meanwhile, make the red sauce: Process the chili powder, garlic and 5 cups water in a blender until smooth. Season the flour with garlic salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Toss the beef in the flour, then add to the skillet to brown on all sides. Pour in the chili powder mixture and simmer until the beef is tender, about 15 minutes.

Make the enchiladas: Preheat the broiler. Place 4 tortillas on a baking sheet. Sprinkle each with cheese, then top with green sauce on one side and red on the other. Repeat to make two more layers. Top the stacks with more cheese and broil until melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Meanwhile, mist a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and fry the eggs as desired, then season with salt and pepper. Top each enchilada stack with lettuce, tomatoes and a fried egg.

    I have made this recipie several times and have always been happy with the green sauce. We made the red sauce once and something on the recipe for the red sauce must be wrong. The red is horrible but the green is well worth making! I give it 3 stars since the red was so bad but for the green alone I would give it 5 stars.

    I read about this recipe in the Food Network Magazine and was thrilled since I love Sadies...however, the red sauce tasted like watered down chile powder versus a Sadies quality red sauce. If you want authentic, I suggest looking up Nedra Valdez on the site. That is the only Red Sauce on the site that receives 5 stars and is made from scratch. Alternatively, you can visit sadiessalsa.com and purchase authentic Sadies Red Sauce.
