Steps

1Preheat oven to 350º F.
2Drizzle olive oil into bottom of 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Once warm, add a tortilla, one at a time, to the skillet. Cook until crisp on each side, remove from the skillet with tongs and set aside.
3Add beef and onions to the skillet and cook until completely browned. Remove from heat and drain away any drippings. Add garlic to the skillet and cook until fragrant.
4Spoon about 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce into the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish that has been sprayed with olive oil or cooking spray. Spread enchilada sauce to coat the bottom of the casserole dish.
5Place 3 tortillas on top of the enchilada sauce, overlapping them slightly at the edges to make all 3 tortillas fit lengthwise. Ladle on additional enchilada sauce, about 1/2 cup. Layer on beef, onion and garlic mixture, making sure to spread mixture evenly over tortillas and enchilada sauce.
6Top with large dollops of sour cream and spread slightly. Sprinkle on a little of both cheeses.
7Repeat layering with 3 more tortillas, enchilada sauce, beef mixture, sour cream, and end with cheeses.
8Bake in oven until cheeses have melted, about 20 minutes.
9Serve warm.
