The husband and I love Mexican food. I used to make a variation of this recipe all the time when we were first married. I used refried beans then and we now prefer black beans, and just like my enchilada casserole recipe (check it out if you want a great enchilada recipe) I used chicken in this one too. This is a pretty versatile recipe and you can really use whatever ingredients your family likes.
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Saute green peppers and onion until just tender and they have gotten a little browned. Remove from heat. Combine beans, chicken, sauted green peppers/onions, red pepper flakes, chili powder, garlic powder and 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese in a bowl. Stir to combine all the ingredients.
In a hot nonstick skillet, lightly crisp the tortillas on each side. This will keep the pie “crust” remaining firm when you add the filling and bake. Spray a pie plate with cooking spray and place one of the tortillas in the bottom. Divide the bean/chicken mixture evenly and place half of it on the first tortilla. Place the second tortilla on top of this mixture and top with the other half of the bean/chicken mixture. Place the last tortilla on the top. Take the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese and evenly spread it over the tortilla.
Bake for approximately 20 minutes. Top with your favorite salsa or sour cream. Serves 6.
