Preparation
-
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350℉.
-
Step 2
In a bowl, combine the crushed tortilla chips (they should be the size of large breadcrumbs) with the water or beef broth. Stir to make a thick paste. This helps keep the meatballs moist but also adds a great corn flavor.
-
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine Ground Beef, green chiles, salt, garlic powder, cumin, chipotle powder, onion powder and the tortilla chip mix. Using hands, mix lightly but thoroughly (do not pack).
-
Step 4
Form the Ground Beef mixture into balls, using about 1/3 cup of the mixture per ball. Do not overwork or form the meatballs too tightly.
-
Step 5
Place the meatballs in a large skillet, leaving space between them, then bake for 15 minutes.
-
Step 6
Pour the enchilada sauce over/around the meatballs, and return to the oven for an additional 7 minutes.
-
Step 7
Sprinkle the cheese all over the meatballs, and return to the oven until cheese is melted, about 3-5 minutes.
-
Step 8
Serve immediately. Caution, skillet will be extremely hot.
