Air Fryer Enchiladas are a delicious change from the usual tacos, burritos, and bowls we rely so heavily on for quick weeknight meals. These beef enchiladas are filled with seasoned beef and cheese, and then topped with red chile enchilada sauce and more cheese. They’re super easy to make in the air fryer.

Ingredients
- 2 cups red enchilada sauce homemade or canned
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef cooked with taco seasoning
- 12 to 16 corn tortillas
- 2 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives for garnish (optional)
Instructions
-
In a medium bowl, combine the enchilada sauce with 1 cup of the meat.
-
Add 2 or 3 spoonfuls of the sauce mixture to the bottom of a baking pan that will fit in your air fryer and spread it out to cover the bottom of the pan.
-
Microwave the tortillas for 15 seconds to make them pliable.
-
Add about 2 tablespoons of the meat to each tortilla. Top with a little bit of cheese and roll the tortilla up around the filling. Place in the pan, seam side down.
-
Once the pan is filled, top generously with sauce and cheese. Make sure the sauce and cheese are evenly distributed across all the enchiladas so that they are fully covered.
-
Place the pan in the air fryer basket and cook at 375°F for 6 to 8 minutes, until the tortillas are crisp and the cheese is fully melted.
-
Enjoy!
