How to Make Birria Enchiladas

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Dip the corn tortillas briefly in the warm birria sauce.
Fill each tortilla with a generous amount of shredded birria beef and a sprinkle of cheese, then roll them up tightly.
Arrange the rolled tortillas in a baking dish, placing them seam-side down. Cover with remaining birria sauce.
Top with remaining cheese and cover the dish. Bake for 20 minutes.
Uncover and continue baking until cheese is fully melted and bubbly, around another 10-15 minutes.
