Preparation

Step 1

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and chili powder. Cook 2-3 minutes, stirring often. Add remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Bring sauce to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer about 10 minutes.

Makes about 3 1/4 cups of sauce.

**This is equivalent to about one large can of red enchilada sauce. It’s perfect for a 9×13″ pan of enchiladas.
