Mexican Lasagna with Chicken & Black Bean Recipe

Name: Mexican Lasagna with Chicken & Black Bean
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 12 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Mexican
Ingredients: 15 ounces black beans; 1 tablespoon canola oil; 4 servings cilantro; 12 corn tortillas; 2 teaspoon cumin powder; 1 cup chipotle enchilada sauce; 2 teaspoon garlic powder; 4 oz ground chicken; 1 jalapenos; 1 onion; 4 servings bell pepper; 0.5 bell pepper; 2 teaspoon chili powder; 4 servings salt; 6 ounces sharp cheddar cheese; 1 package taco seasoning

This layered dish takes inspiration from lasagna, building up corn tortillas with a spiced chicken and black bean filling, sharp cheddar, and chipotle enchilada sauce. It bakes until the cheese is bubbly and melted, making for a hearty meal that comes together in about 45 minutes. You'll brown chicken with onion and bell pepper, then fold in black beans and a blend of spices. Layer it all in a baking dish, then top with more sauce and cheese before a quick bake.
