Ingredients
2 tablespoons neutral oil
1 lb ground sirloin or ground beef (90/10)
½ red onion, diced
1 poblano pepper, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons ancho chile powder
½ teaspoon chipotle chile powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon dried oregano
2 cups enchilada sauce
1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup fresh corn kernels
6 corn tortillas, cut into wedges
1½ cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
½ cup minced fresh cilantro
Juice of 1 lime
⅓ cup Mexican crema
Kosher salt and cracked black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix the ancho chile powder, chipotle chile powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, and dried oregano; set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks.
- Add the seasoning blend, diced onion, poblano pepper, and garlic. Cook until the vegetables are softened, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Stir in the enchilada sauce, black beans, and corn.
- Add the tortilla wedges and gently mix until evenly coated.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted, bubbling, and lightly browned.
- Meanwhile, combine the cherry tomatoes, cilantro, and lime juice; season lightly with salt.
- Remove the skillet from the oven, let it rest briefly, then top with the tomato mixture and drizzle with Mexican crema before serving.
Notes
An oven-safe skillet makes this truly a one-pan meal.
Letting the skillet rest helps the sauce thicken slightly.
You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version.
Add jalapeños or extra chipotle powder for more heat.
