# Steps:

01 - Heat oil in a large skillet. Add diced potatoes and season with adobo seasoning, garlic powder, and jalapeño flakes. Cook until crispy, about 15 minutes. Set aside.
02 - In the same skillet, cook ground beef with diced onion and minced garlic until browned. Drain grease. Add taco seasoning, green chiles, and ½ cup enchilada sauce. Stir in cooked potatoes.
03 - Microwave tortillas wrapped in damp paper towels for 1 minute, or lightly fry them in oil.
04 - Spread ½ cup enchilada sauce in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Fill tortillas with the beef and potato mixture, roll them, and place seam-side down in the dish.
05 - Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the tortillas and cover with shredded cheese.
06 - Bake at 375°F for 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

# Tips:

01 - Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven until warmed through.
02 - To freeze, let the enchiladas cool completely and wrap the entire baking dish tightly in foil, or portion into freezer containers. Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.
03 - To reheat, cover the dish with foil and bake at 350°F until heated through, or microwave individual portions.
