Ingredients

2 (12 ounce) cans roast beef with gravy
1 cup shredded pepper Jack cheese
1 (7 ounce) can diced green chiles
oil for frying
18 corn tortillas

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine roast beef with gravy, pepper Jack cheese, and green chiles. Use a fork to break up the beef and mix everything thoroughly. Set the mixture aside.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the tortillas in the hot oil for just a few seconds, until they soften slightly (about 2 to 3 seconds). Drain the tortillas on a plate lined with paper towels.
Working in batches, spoon the beef mixture onto the tortillas, placing it in a line down the center. Roll the tortilla around the filling and place it in a frying pan with the edge of the rolled tortilla facing down. Cook over medium heat until the tortillas are completely browned, about 5 to 8 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels before serving.
