One Skillet Street Corn Chicken Enchilada Bake

A quick and cheesy one-skillet dinner featuring shredded chicken, sweet corn, black beans, and melty cheese, all baked to perfection.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Cooked Chicken (Shredded) – Rotisserie, ground turkey, or tofu (for plant-based)
  • 1 cup Sweet Corn – Frozen, canned, or fresh
  • 1 can (15 oz) Black Beans – Pinto beans or lentils
  • 1012 Tortillas – Flour or corn
  • 2 cups Cheese (Cheddar or Pepper Jack) – Monterey Jack or vegan cheese
  • 1 cup Salsa Verde – Red enchilada sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In the largest oven-safe skillet, sauté onions and garlic until fragrant and golden.
  3. Add shredded chicken and corn, then stir in black beans and spices; mix well.
  4. Stir in half of the cheese and sour cream or yogurt until combined.
  5. Layer torn or cut tortillas with salsa verde into the skillet, tossing until everything is well coated.
