Ingredients

2 tablespoons salted butter

1 red onion, chopped

2 Roma tomatoes, diced

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon chili powder

2 teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon kosher salt

One 15-ounce can black beans, drained

One 15-ounce can red enchilada sauce

3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken

10 corn tortillas, cut into fourths

2 cups grated Cheddar-jack cheese

To Serve:

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro

1 avocado, diced

2 limes, cut into wedges

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. Melt the butter in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, tomatoes and garlic. Season with the chili powder, cumin and salt and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the beans, enchilada sauce and chicken, then stir to combine. Gently fold in the quartered tortillas and top with the cheese.
  3. Bake until the cheese has melted, 15 to 18 minutes.
  4. Remove from the oven and garnish with the sour cream, cilantro, olives and avocado. Serve with the lime wedges on the side.
