Description
A nourishing, plant-based dish packed with hearty potatoes, black beans, and a kick from green chili sauce, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large potatoes (about 1.5 to 2 pounds)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion (diced)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 can black beans (15 oz, rinsed and drained)
- 1 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 1 can green chili enchilada sauce (10 oz)
- 8 corn tortillas
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt (to taste)
- Pepper (to taste)
- Fresh cilantro (for garnish, optional)
- Avocado (for serving, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Wash, peel, and cut the potatoes into cubes. Place in a large pot of salted water, bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 10-15 minutes. Once done, drain and mash the potatoes.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Add black beans, corn, mashed potatoes, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Mix well and heat through for about 5 minutes, then remove from heat.
- Spread a thin layer of green chili enchilada sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.
- Take a corn tortilla, place a generous amount of the potato mixture in the center, and roll it up tightly. Place the rolled tortilla seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Pour the remaining green chili enchilada sauce over the top of the enchiladas. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through and slightly bubbly. For a touch of crispness, remove the foil in the last 5 minutes.
- Allow to cool slightly. Serve garnished with fresh cilantro and slices of avocado if desired.
Notes
For a different twist, substitute black beans with pinto beans or lentils.
