Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400˚. Coat an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray. Spread 1/2 cup enchilada sauce in the bottom of the pan and top with 3 corn tortillas, slightly overlapping and cutting as needed to fit. Top with half each of the pork, beans and corn; sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese. Top with 3 more tortillas and spread with another 1/2 cup enchilada sauce. Top with the remaining pork, beans and corn and sprinkle with another 1/2 cup cheese. Top with the remaining 4 tortillas; spread the remaining enchilada sauce on top.
- Cover with foil and bake until hot and bubbling around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes. Uncover, top with the remaining 1 cup cheese and continue to bake until melted and bubbling all over, about 10 minutes. Top each serving with sour cream, scallions and cilantro.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Use fresh, ripe tomatoes and green chilies, and a flavorful cut of pork.
- If you don't have a Dutch oven, you can use a large skillet or braising pan.
- Brown the pork in batches to prevent overcrowding the pan and steaming the meat.
- Season the pork generously with salt and pepper before browning. This will help develop flavor and prevent the meat from becoming bland.
- Use a combination of canned and dried beans for a more complex flavor. Soaking the dried beans overnight will help them cook evenly.
- Add a tablespoon of chili powder, cumin, and oregano to the beans for a classic Mexican flavor profile.
- Simmer the casserole for at least 30 minutes, or until the pork is tender and the beans are heated through.
- Serve the casserole with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, and guacamole.
