Meet your new best friend: spicy red enchilada sauce ready in 30 minutes. Swoon! It's so easy. We'll show you how.

It is believed that enchiladas may have originated from a similar Mayan dish called papadzules. However the first written recipe for enchiladas was in an 1831 cookbook called El Cocinero mexicano (source).

The word “enchilada” is a form of the verb “enchilar” which means “to season with chili.” And chili peppers are at the heart of enchilada sauce!
