    How To Make Sausage Gravy Chicken Enchiladas

    Ingredients You Will Need

    • 10 flour tortillas (8 inches)
    • 1 pound breakfast sausage, such as Jimmie Dean
    • 8 eggs, beaten
    • 2 cups shredded co-jack cheese
    • ¼ cup flour
    • 2 cups milk
    • salt and pepper
    • optional toppings: salsa, sour cream, avocado, guacamole, green onions, pico de gallo

    Instructions To Make Enchiladas

    Like I say always, gather all your ingredients first. It is so much easier to whip up a dish when everything is out and ready. Then once you have all your ingredients and tools ready, preheat the oven to 375°.

    Now, brown the sausage in a deep skillet over medium heat until no longer pink. While the sausage is browning, in another skillet cook and scramble the eggs until they are about 80% done. Partially cooking the eggs lets the eggs finish fully cooking in the oven, which results in nice fluffy eggs and not rubber eggs.

    Once the sausage and eggs are done, use a slotted spoon and add half of the sausage to the eggs along with 1 cup of the shredded cheese. Mix it all together. This will be the filling for the enchiladas.

    Next step, make the gravy. In the pan with just sausage, turn the heat back on to medium. Once hot, add the flour, stir it well and let it cook for a couple minutes. Slowly add the milk, stirring the entire time. Bring the gravy to a boil and boil for 2-3 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper.

    Time to assemble the enchiladas. Using a ¼ cup measuring cup, scoop a heaping amount and place it on a tortilla. Roll the tortilla nice and tight without letting any filling fall out and place the enchilada seam side down in a 9x13 baking dish. Repeat with the rest of the filling and tortillas.

    Finally, pour the gravy over the enchiladas as evenly as possible, spread it out with a spatula if needed, then top it all off with the remaining 1 cup of cheese. Bake the enchiladas for 30 minutes.
