Chef Jose have been serving enchiladas in his restaurants for almost 20 years, and now you can taste them at your very own dinner table! This is his take on a beef enchilada, featuring slow braised Cuban-style ground beef in the style of picadillo with golden raisins, green olives, capers and lots of spices. The beef is joined by quinoa, and kale, with Oaxaca and Monterey jack cheeses, rolled up into soft corn tortillas, and drizzled with a spicy, creamy chipotle sauce for a touch of smoky spice and additional richness. Served up with arroz moro, Cuban black beans and rice, salsa roja, and Cotija cheese, this dish is the whole package.

I'd love a slightly larger portion, but otherwise this is perfect
