I’m surprised that there is no tomato sauce in this recipe. At first I thought it was a mistake but It is delicious !!!! I will never use canned sauce again.

Nice recipe. Usually buy canned and thought I’d try from scratch. Worked out well.

We love the enchilada sauce so much and make it frequently. Do you think it would can well?

In reply to Rosemary Gander.

You could try subbing a portion of your chili powder with paprika (or even better, smoked paprika). Not very spicy, and great color.

This is exactly the enchilada sauce I’ve been looking for. My wife doesn’t do well with cooked tomato sauce. I had to leave out the peppers. Otherwise I followed your recipe. It turned out great. Thanks

Easy and flavorful. It didn’t get to the thickness I was hoping for so I added a bit of cornstarch slurry. If it’s too thin I feel like it dissolves my corn tortillas. I like a little viscosity to coat but not soak them.
I will absolutely make again and thank you for a very rare tomato-free version of a red enchilada sauce.

I didn’t have any chicken stock so I used water and used a little extra garlic powder. Turned out great. Tasty and easy recipe! I will definitely use it in the future.

I’ve rarely found a recipe on this site that failed but this one failed miserably. All I could taste was chili powder. Tried to “save” it by adding additional spices and diluting further then using cornstarch slurry but could not be saved. Had husband check behind me to confirm I followed all steps! Maybe it’s my chili powder but literally the only recipe on this site I’ve tried that I will probably never make again.

I’ve never made this sauce before and I thought I’d wing it with store bought sauce. When I saw the can at the store I changed my mind because this recipe looked easy and I didn’t like the brand on the shelf.
Today is my send time making it and it just so perfect. I used the gf flour and it’s just delicious beyond belief!
