Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Brown ground beef in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, breaking apart with a spoon, until no pink remains, ~5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Pour in 1 cup enchilada sauce and stir in cumin. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until slightly thickened, ~2 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Dip a tortilla in remaining sauce and lay it flat in the skillet. Add a spoonful of beef mixture and a pinch of cheese on top.

  4. Step 4

    Layer a second tortilla, beef, cheese, then a third tortilla. Repeat to build a second stack. Pour remaining sauce over both stacks and top with remaining cheese.

  5. Step 5

    Cover with foil. Cook over medium heat until cheese melts and edges are golden, ~4 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Slide onto plates. Top each stack with sliced avocado and a spoonful of pico de gallo. Serve immediately.
