Best Corn And Black Bean Chilaquiles Recipes

CHILAQUILES WITH BEANS AND CORN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat 11-inch x 7-inch baking dish with canola oil spray and set aside.
• If using fresh corn, cut kernels from cob
• there should be 1-1½ cups. Set aside.
• In medium skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, 4 minutes. Add spinach, pulling it apart. Add beans and cumin and cook until cumin is fragrant, stirring often. Add tomatoes and corn and cook until mixture is heated through, about 5 minutes. Set vegetable and bean filling aside.
• Arrange 2 tortillas on bottom of prepared pan. Cut 2 other tortillas in half and add 2 halves to cover bottom of pan. Spoon half the filling over tortillas. Pour on ¾ cup enchilada sauce. Sprinkle on half the cheese. Repeat, using remaining tortillas, filling, sauce and cheese. Cover pan with foil. Bake chilaquiles for 15 minutes.
• Uncover and then bake until cheese melts and casserole is bubbly around edges, about 10 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

CHILAQUILES ROJOS

Steps:

• To make the sauce: Measure the flour, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, oregano, salt and cinnamon into a small bowl. Place the bowl near the stove with the tomato paste and broth.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the oil until it's it's hot enough that a light sprinkle of the flour/spice mixture sizzles on contact. This might take a couple of minutes. Keep an eye on it.
• Once it's ready, pour in the flour and spice mixture. While whisking constantly, cook until fragrant and slightly deepened in color, about 1 minute. Whisk the tomato paste into the mixture, then slowly pour in the broth while whisking constantly to remove any lumps.
• Raise heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat as necessary to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook, whisking often, for about 5 to 7 minutes, until the sauce has thickened a bit and your spoon encounters some resistance as you stir it.
• Reduce the heat to the lowest possible setting. Whisk in the cilantro and vinegar and season to taste with additional salt, if necessary (I usually add another pinch or two).
• To make the chilaquiles: Add the tortilla chips to the skillet. Using a flexible spatula, gently toss until all of the chips are coated in sauce. It might seem like they never will be, but keep stirring!
• Once coated, remove the skillet from the heat. Test a chip to see if it has softened to your liking (this is really a matter of personal preference-I like my chips lightly tender). If the chips are not sufficiently softened, cover the skillet for 1 to 4 minutes, until you're happy with their texture.
• Sprinkle the chilaquiles generously with crumbled cheese, radish and cilantro leaves. Scoop servings onto individual plates, add a few slices of avocado, a fried egg if desired, and a wedge of lime. The chips will continue softening with time, so chilaquiles are best served promptly (do not re-cover the pan to preserve heat; the chips will get far too soggy).

QUICK BLACK BEAN CHILAQUILES

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add chopped onion and cook until it softens slightly, about 5 minutes. Add tortilla chips. Add eggs to the pan and stir around with the chips until almost set, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour in black beans and salsa. Stir to combine and heat through, about 5 minutes.
• Top chilaquiles with queso fresco, red onion, avocado, and cilantro. Serve immediately.
