- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the chopped onion until translucent, about 3–4 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Add ground beef to the skillet, breaking into pieces, and cook for 5–7 minutes until browned. Season with salt and pepper.
- Stir in green chilies and cook for another 2 minutes.
- In another skillet, heat olive oil and fry each corn tortilla for 30 seconds on each side.
- Spread a layer of red enchilada sauce in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Assemble each tortilla with a portion of beef mixture, sprinkle cheese on top, and roll tightly. Place seam-side down in the baking dish.
- Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled enchiladas and sprinkle with cheese.
- Bake for about 20 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.

Notes
Frying the tortillas prevents tearing. Adjust green chilies for heat preference. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days.
