Categories Steak

Time 40m

Yield 4 large enchiladas, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

cooking spray
1 cup onion, chopped
1 cup cooked steak, cut in 1/4-inch - 1/2-inch dice
15 ounces black beans, rinsed
1 1/3 ounces taco seasoning mix
2 ears fresh corn, kernals cut off, approx 1 1/4 cup
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded and divided
2 cups prepared enchilada sauce
40 inches flour tortillas

Steps:

Coat a 9 X 9 baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
Coat a medium sized skillet with cooking spray and saute onions until softened.
Put in steak, rinsed black beans and taco seasoning mix with water (should say on package-if not around 2/3 cup).
Cook until mixture is thickened.
Add corn kernals and 1 cup of cheese and mix well.
Spoon 1/4 of the mixture into the center of each tortilla and roll up.
Place enchiladas seam side down in the prepared baking dish.
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Pour enchilada sauce over the enchiladas making sure to cover the tortillas and top with remaining cheese.
Bake for 15 - 20 minutes or until bubbly.
Note: These can be frozen ahead by preparing the enchiladas through #7, bagging in a kit, the sauce in one bag, enchiladas separate, and cheese topping.
If you are cooking from the freezer, thaw in the refrigerator, top with sauces and bake as directed.

Tips:

Use high-quality leftover steak for the best results.
Slice the steak thinly against the grain for tender enchiladas.
Choose your favorite enchilada sauce, whether it's a mild, medium, or hot variety.
Don't overfill the enchiladas, or they will be difficult to roll and may fall apart.
Bake the enchiladas in a preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the enchiladas are heated through.
Top the enchiladas with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, guacamole, salsa, or chopped cilantro.
