Inspired by Gimme Some Oven

Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon olive oil -
1 onion -
1 red bell pepper -
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chiles -
2 (15 ounce) cans pinto beans, rinsed and drained (1 pinto, 1 black) -
1 (8 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained -
3 cups chicken -
3 cups red enchilada sauce -
12 corn tortillas, halved -
3 cups shredded Monterrey Jack cheese -
toppings - cilantro, red onion, green onion, avocado
Directions
- Heat oven to 375°F. Mist a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
- Heat oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper and sauté for 6-7 minutes, or until softened. Stir in the diced green chiles, beans, corn, chicken and 2 cups enchilada sauce, and stir to combine. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Pour about 1/2 cup of the remaining enchilada sauce in the baking dish, and spread until the bottom of the dish is evenly coated. Top with a layer of about 8 tortilla halves, so that the entire dish is covered. Top evenly with 1/3 of the chicken mixture, followed by 1/3 of the cheese. Repeat with another layer of tortillas, chicken mixture, and cheese. Followed by a final layer of tortillas, chicken mixture, the remaining 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce, and cheese.
- Cover the pan with aluminum foil, then bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove pan and remove aluminum foil. Uncover and bake for 10 more minutes, until the cheese is thoroughly melted.
- Remove from the oven and serve warm, garnished with your desired toppings.
