Instruction

  • Preheat oven 350 degrees. Prepare an 8x8 baking dish by spraying with cooking spray (or use a 9x13 dish to double the recipe). Drizzle a layer of enchilada sauce on the bottom of your pan.
  • In a large saucepan, heat olive oil and onions on medium high heat for about 1 minute. Add beans, corn, peppers, zucchini. Saute for about 7 minutes mixing continuously for even cooking. Remove from heat. Mix in chicken and a handful of cilantro leaving a little bit for garnish.
  • Layer your baking dish with 1 large tortilla (or 4 small corn tortillas spread to cover), 1/3 of the cheese, cooked vegetable mixture, another tortilla (or 4 small corn tortillas), 1/3 of cheese, cooked vegetable mixture, tortilla (or 4 small corn tortillas), and remaining cheese. On top of the last layer of cheese, pour the rest of the enchilada sauce and garnish with fresh cilantro.
  • Cover and bake at 350 for about 20-30 minutes or until cheese is melted and heated through. Let cool 5 minutes and garnish with cilantro, salsa, olives, sour cream.
