The San Antonio cheese enchilada is corn tortillas rolled around shredded cheese and onion, blanketed in a brick-red chili con carne gravy and more melted cheese, then baked.
The chili-gravy enchilada descends directly from the Chili Queens' chili con carne and the combination-plate tradition that San Antonio's Mexican restaurants codified through the 20th century. Where interior Mexican enchiladas use a salsa or mole, the San Antonio version leans on a flour-thickened, cumin-scented chili gravy, a distinctly Tex-Mex creation that long-running rooms like La Fonda on Main and Mi Tierra still serve daily.
