Easy Chicken & Black Bean Enchiladas image

Very tasty enchiladas and a great way to use up three-quarters of a pound of chicken or half-used can of black beans. My husband, who is quite vocal about his disdain of chicken, gets real quiet and goes back for seconds whenever I make these!

Time 45m

Yield 12 enchiladas, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4-1 lb chicken breast, diced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
coarse-grind garlic salt
cumin
1/4 cup salsa (we like it medium-hot)
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
2 1/4 cups grated monterey jack and cheddar cheese blend or 2 1/4 cups Mexican blend cheese, divided
12 -14 corn tortillas
vegetable oil (for softening tortillas)
1 (15 ounce) can green enchilada sauce (Hatch Select)

Steps:

  • In frypan, cook chicken in oil over medium-high heat until chicken is just done; season with garlic salt and cumin to taste; add salsa, black beans, and half the cheese and stir until evenly distributed.
  • Heat oil in small frying pan; soften tortillas, one at a time, by placing in hot oil for a few seconds on each side; drain tortillas on absorbent paper.
  • Divide chicken mixture between tortillas; roll tortillas tightly and place seam-side-down in a 9x13" baking pan that has been sprayed with no-stick cooking spray.
  • Pour enchilada sauce evenly over top; top with remaining cheese; bake at 350° for 20 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
