Chicken and Black Bean Enchiladas for #SundaySupper Birthday

It is #SundaySupper’s Birthday. Yay! And, to celebrate,  the contributors of #SundaySupper decided to make recipes that have been featured throughout the year.  There are so many awesome recipes, how is a girl supposed to pick just one?! It was a hard task, but I decided to make Anne at  Webicurean.com Enchiladas. 

The Enchiladas were first posted in an After Thanksgiving #SundaySupper, one that utilized leftover Turkey. In the original recipe Thanksgiving Turkey was used to create Turkey and Black Bean Enchiladas. For this recipe, I substituted chicken. A grocery store rotisserie chicken to be exact. I also added corn to the recipe. I have this love affair with black beans and corn that I could not resist adding into this dish.  It was so simple to make and tasted amazing that I for see these enchiladas becoming a weekday supper meal for my family as well. 

 

What you will need:

    3 cups chopped cooked turkey (or chicken)

    1 can (14.5 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained

    1 clove garlic crushed/pressed

    ¼ cup chopped cilantro

    ½ jalapeno pepper, finely chopped

    Juice from one lime

    ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

    Salt & Pepper to taste

    1 can (28 oz) green chile enchilada sauce

    12 corn tortillas

    1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

   ½ cup of corn, I used frozen

To begin, I  mixed the chicken, corn beans, garlic, cilantro, pepper, lime juice, and ½ cup cheese. In a baking  dish,  spread about ½ cup of the enchilada sauce on the bottom of your pan . Now, it is time to construct your enchiladas.  Cover the corn  tortillas in a damp paper towel then place in a microwave and heat for about one minute. Next,  spread a small amount of sauce on the tortilla  and fill with  ⅓ cup your chicken and black bean mixture, roll the sides over, then place seam side down in your dish.  After you have made up the enchiladas, top them with the remainder of your sauce and sprinkle with cheese. Place this, uncovered, in the oven and bake  at 350F for about 30 minutes or until everything is bubbly and the cheese is melted smooth.

 

I served this is a lime wedge to squeeze over the top of your enchilada. I have never used lime juice in enchiladas.  Using the lime was a brilliant idea! The tang of the citrus really sparked off the dish and brightened all the flavors. The black beans and corn, my classic loves, were awesome paired with the cilantro and lime. This was a great way to celebrate #SundaySupper.

Thank you Anne at Webicurean for sharing such a wonderfully tasty dish. I imagine this was great with leftover Turkey, however, it was awesome with chicken.  Yum!

Be sure to check out all the dishes that are being served up. It is a walk down memory lane and an awesome way to remind yourself of all the dishes you want to make this year. There is so many it is too hard to pick just one. Have fun with it.

Enjoy
