How to make
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick spray.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic, onion and bell peppers. Cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in black beans, corn, chili powder and cumin until heated through, about 1-2 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in green chiles and cilantro; set aside.
Place tortillas evenly on the bottom of the baking dish. Spread the onion mixture, chicken and enchilada sauce over the tortillas. Sprinkle with cheese.
Place into oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until bubbly.
Serve immediately, garnished with cilantro, if desired.
