Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Step 2
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and saute 2 minutes. Add chicken and saute 5-7 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 3
Stir in black beans, green chiles, and salsa and simmer 5 minutes, until sauce thickens and reduces. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro, season with salt & pepper.
Step 4
Arrange 8 tortillas on a flat surface. Top each tortilla with an equal amount of chicken mixture (I sprinkle with a few tablespoons of grated cheese you don't have to if you don't want to, this is optional).
Step 5
Roll up tortillas and place side by side in a shallow baking dish. Top tortillas with shredded cheese.
Step 6
Bake enchiladas 15 minutes, until cheese is golden and gooey.
