Description
A recipe for baked enchiladas filled with ground turkey and black beans, topped with sauce and cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup enchilada sauce (red or green)
- 8 corn or flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground turkey and cook, breaking it up, until browned. Drain any excess fat.
- Add chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the rinsed and drained black beans.
- Spread about 1/4 cup of enchilada sauce in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Warm the tortillas briefly in the microwave or a dry skillet to make them pliable.
- Spoon about 1/4 cup of the turkey and bean mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll up the tortilla tightly and place it seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
- Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the dish is heated through.
Notes
- If using flour tortillas, you may want to bake them for 5 minutes before filling to prevent tearing.
- For a spicier flavor, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the meat mixture.
