Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 1 medium, diced Yellow onion
- 2 cups Enchilada sauce
- 8 large Corn tortillas
- 2 cups Shredded Mexican cheese blend
- 1 cup (drained) Canned black beans
- 1 small can (4 oz) Canned diced green chilies
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Cumin powder
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp (chopped, optional for garnish) Fresh cilantro
Instructions
In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned, breaking it up into crumbles. Add the diced onion and cook for an additional 3 minutes until softened.
Stir in the garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
Add the black beans and diced green chilies to the skillet. Stir and cook for 2 more minutes. Remove from heat.
Prepare the Nuwave Oven or Flavorwave by placing the rack at the lowest level. Preheat for 2-3 minutes if necessary.
In a baking dish that fits inside the Nuwave Oven, spread a thin layer of enchilada sauce on the bottom.
Place 2 corn tortillas over the sauce, covering as much space as possible (it's okay if they overlap slightly).
Spread a portion of the meat mixture on top of the tortillas, followed by a layer of shredded cheese and a drizzle of enchilada sauce.
Repeat layers (tortillas, meat mixture, cheese, and sauce) until all ingredients are used, finishing with a generous layer of cheese on top.
Carefully place the baking dish inside the Nuwave Oven on the rack. Set the oven to 350°F and cook for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Using oven mitts, remove the dish from the Nuwave Oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired and serve warm. Enjoy!
