Directions

1. Spray a 9x13 casserole dish with cooking spray. Preheat the oven to 375° F.

2. Make the green chile enchilada sauce by mixing the salsa verde and Greek yogurt together. Set aside.

3. Drain the green chilies. Drain and rinse the black beans. If you’re using frozen corn, rinse it under cold water until it is thawed. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the corn and the beans for topping the enchiladas before serving.

4. In a large bowl, stir together the shredded chicken, black beans, corn, sliced green onions, green chilies, parsley (or cilantro), chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, cumin and cayenne.

5. Add ¾ cup enchilada sauce and 1 cup of Monterey jack cheese to the chicken mixture.

6. Place ½ cup of the green sauce in the bottom of the baking dish.

7. Now it’s time to roll the enchiladas. Place about ⅓ cup of the chicken mixture onto the lower half of a tortilla — the part that is nearest you. Roll up the tortilla away from you. Place seam side down in the pan. Continue with the rest of the tortillas and filling.

8. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas and cover with the remaining cheese.
