Yield 8 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 2/3 oz Old El Paso Enchilada Sauce Mix, or equivalent product (use a 1.62 oz package)
6 oz canned tomato paste
8 cup water, divided
2 Tbsp canola oil
1 cup onion(s), chopped
1/2 cup green pepper(s), chopped
1 medium garlic clove(s), minced
1 1/2 cup uncooked yellow cornmeal
1 sprays cooking spray
15 oz canned black beans, drained and rinsed
15 oz canned yellow corn, drained and rinsed
2 cup cooked chicken breast, skinless, diced
1 1/2 cup Kraft Free Shredded Cheddar Cheese, or other brand

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare enchilada sauce according to package directions using tomato paste and 3 cups of water. (You will end up with 3 cups of sauce total.) Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, pepper and garlic. Cook, stirring until translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove 1 cup of onion mixture and place in a large mixing bowl; set aside. Stir 3 cups of water into remaining onion mixture and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, add cornmeal to remaining 2 cups of water in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Gradually add cornmeal mixture to boiling water-onion mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until cornmeal is thickened, about 4 to 6 minutes. Coat a 9 X 13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray. Spread cornmeal mixture evenly over bottom of dish. Spoon beans, corn and chicken into reserved onion mixture; combine thoroughly. Spread half of enchilada sauce over cornmeal layer. Top with all of bean mixture and then remaining enchilada sauce; sprinkle with cheese. Bake until heated through and cheese is melted, about 45 minutes. Slice into 8 pieces and serve. (Note: This recipe is a bit saucy. For a firmer consistency, reduce the amount of enchilada sauce by 1/2 to 1/3.)
