Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb chicken, cooked and shredded
15 ounces black beans, rinsed and drained
1 1/2 cups green chili salsa
1 1/2 cups frozen corn, thawed and drained
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
12 soft taco-size flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Mix chicken, sour cream, black beans, salsa, corn, cilantro, and spices in a large bowl. Taste and adjust to seasonings to your preference.
  • Cut tortillas in half with kitchen shears. In a 9x13 inch dish, scoop 1/3 of the chicken mixture into the bottom of the pan. Spread evenly.

  • Repeat with chicken mixture, tortillas, shredded cheese two more times. There should be 3 layers total.
  • Bake in oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and casserole is warmed through.
  • Serve with sour cream and additional chopped cilantro.
