Prep: 10 min · Cook: 15 min · Yield: 4 · Method: Stovetop
Ingredients
- 2 15-ounce cans, drained and rinsed black beans
- 2 cups enchilada sauce
- 8 6-inch corn tortillas
- 1.5 cups corn
- 1.5 cups, shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
Cooking instructions
- Warm the olive oil in a 10-inch deep skillet over medium heat. Add the enchilada sauce, salt, and cumin; stir until steaming, about 2 minutes. (about 2 min) — Medium heat
- Tear 4 tortillas into large pieces and arrange them over the sauce. Scatter half of the black beans and corn over the tortillas, then spoon over 1 cup of the remaining sauce. (about 2 min) — Medium heat
- Repeat with the remaining torn tortillas, black beans, corn, and sauce, spreading the sauce as evenly as possible. (about 2 min) — Medium heat
- Sprinkle the cheddar evenly over the top. Cover and cook until the tortillas are tender, the filling is hot throughout, and the cheese is fully melted, 8 to 10 minutes. Do not stir the layers. (about 10 min) — Medium-low heat
- Remove the lid and let the skillet stand for 5 minutes before spooning into bowls. (about 5 min) — Off heat
