Ingredients
  

  • 1 Rotisserie Chicken Shredded
  • 2 Scallions Green parts diced
  • 1-1/2 cups Monterey Jack cheese Shredded
  • 1 8 oz Black Beans Drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup Fresh or Frozen White Sweet Corn
  • 1 28 oz Enchilada Sauce (mild)
  • 8 Corn Tortillas
  • Fresh Cilantro Chopped for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Combine shredded chicken, green onion, black beans, corn and 1 cup cheese and set aside. Toss in a little salt and pepper.
  • In a skillet, heat enchilada sauce to a simmer. Add tortillas to sauce one at a time, quickly so that tortilla looses up but not too much. Fill tortilla with chicken mixture, roll up and place in baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  • If there's leftover chicken mixture (which there should be) spread it on top of stuffed and rolled tortillas. And pour remaining enchilada sauce over top.
  • Sprinkle remaining cheese over top and bake for 20 minutes or until bubbly.
  • Removed from oven and sprinkle with chopped cilantro. Let sit 5 minutes and serve.
