CHICKEN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE

I love chicken enchiladas and this casserole is even easier to make than making regular chicken enchiladas because you just layer your ingredients. Even a kid could make this.

And if you want to have some fun, have a mojito while you make this, or with it, before or after or during, doesn’t really matter. If you have a sombrero you might even want to wear that and make this chicken enchilada while dancing to the Mexican hat dance song.

Ingredients
  1. 19 ounce can of enchilada sauce
  2. 9 extra thin yellow corn tortillas
  3. 16 ounce can fat free refried beans
  4. 1 packet of taco seasoning (or equivalent of homemade taco seasoning)
  5. 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts chopped into small pieces
  6. 1 cup black beans drained and rinsed
  7. 1 can diced tomatoes and green chilies, drained
  8. 1 cup 2% shredded fiesta cheese

 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. Pour a 1/3 cup of the enchilada sauce into the bottom of the pan and spread around.
  4. Arrange 4.5 tortillas across the bottom of the pan to cover it as best as possible.
  5. In a bowl mix the refried beans and the taco seasoning together.
  6. Spread this mixture in an even layer on top of the corn tortillas.
  7. Using the same bowl add the cooked chicken, black beans, tomatoes/chilies and remaining enchilada sauce. Stir these ingredients together.
  8. Spoon half of this mixture on top of the refried bean layer.
  9. Place the remaining 4.5 corn tortillas on top of the layers.
  10. Put the remaining chicken mixture on top of the corn tortillas and spread evenly.
  11. Sprinkle the cheese over the top.
  12. Bake for about 30 minutes.
