Method

1

Preheat oven to 375°F. Dice the red onion and mince the jalapeno, removing seeds if desired. Chop the cilantro. Crumble the cotija cheese and shred the Monterey Jack cheese.

2

In a large skillet, warm the black beans over medium heat. Stir in the diced red onion, minced jalapeno, cumin, and 1/4 cup of the cotija cheese. Cook for 2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and fold in the cilantro.

3

Pour 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce into the bottom of the 9x13 baking dish, spreading to coat evenly.

4

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for 10 seconds per side to soften. Working with one tortilla at a time, dip it into the warm enchilada sauce, then place on a work surface. Spoon about 3 tbsp of the bean filling down the center of the tortilla, sprinkle with a pinch of Monterey Jack cheese, then roll tightly and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

5

Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled enchiladas. Sprinkle the remaining shredded Monterey Jack cheese and cotija cheese over the top.

6

Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes until the cheese is melted and the edges are bubbling. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes.

7

Garnish with remaining fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice. Serve with sour cream on the side if desired.
