Try this enchilada sauce recipe...

ENCHILADA SAUCE RECIPE INGREDIENTS
* 2 cups chicken broth
* 4 Tbs Gebhardt Chili Powder
* 1 tsp. ground cumin
* 2 heaping tsp. garlic powder (with no salt added)
* 3/4 tsp. salt
* 1 pinch ground cinnamon (less than 1/16 tsp.)
* 1/3 tsp. sugar
* 5 Tbs. cold water
* 5 Tbs. white flour

ENCHILADA SAUCE RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS :

In a 2 quart sauce pan add the chicken broth, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, cinnamon and sugar (the sugar is a little secret to eliminate any bitter taste from the chili powder).
Use a whisk to mix everything well. Heat to a boil, reduce heat to a low boil and cook for 3 minutes. Whisk frequently to make sure all spices dissolve. This is important for flavor and a nice smooth sauce. While the sauce is on a slow simmer/boil, add 5 tablespoons of cold
water in a small bowl. With another whisk mix 1 tablespoon at a time of flour. Whisk
vigorously to avoid lumps. If you have lumps here, you will definitely have lumps in your sauce.
After 3 minutes of cooking sauce, turn the heat up to high. Very slowly, pour the flour mixture into the boiling sauce. Here you must whisk the sauce vigorously while adding the flour to avoid
lumps.

After all the flour is added, continue to whisk for one minute. You can turn the heat down to medium during this time. Just make sure the enchilada sauce is boiling. Turn off the heat, this enchilada sauce recipe is done. You will notice that as this enchilada sauce sits it will form a "skin" on the surface. This is normal and in fact the longer the sauce sits the thicker this skin becomes. All you have to do is peel the skin off and throw it away.
This enchilada sauce recipe is very quick to make.enjoy your dinner !
