Homemade Red Enchilada Sauce
  1. In a small bowl, combine flour, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper.

  2. Heat oil in a saucepan over MED heat until warm, then add the flour and spices mixture and whisk well. Cook for 1-2 minutes, whisking occasionally.

  3. Whisk in tomato paste. Slowly pour in chicken broth, whisking as you pour to eliminate any lumps.

  4. Increase heat a bit to bring to a high simmer, then reduce heat to MED LOW to simmer the sauce. Simmer, whisking often, for 5-10 minutes, until the sauce is thickened some and the sauce coats the back of a wooden spoon.

  5. Turn off heat, and whisk in the vinegar (if using), then taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.

  6. Use immediately, or cool completely and store.
