Ingredients

  • 3 chicken breasts, cut in half
  • 1/2 can (28 oz) Old El Paso™ Mild Green Chile Enchilada Sauce
  • 1 small jar green chiles
  • 2 chipotles in adobo, chopped
  • 2 to 3 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 6 6-inch corn tortillas
  • 1 cup black beans
  • 1 cup fresh corn, removed from the cob
  • scallions and cilantro to garnish

Steps

  • 1
    Combine the chicken, enchilada sauce, green chiles and chipotle peppers in a heavy bottom pot over medium heat, stir everything to combine, and cook for 20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken, and using 2 forks, shred the chicken. Reserve all of the sauce.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    No chipotles in adobo on hand? Never fear - add a few dashes of chipotle spice and it’s just as delish!
  • tip 2
    Does your family like it spicy?? Swap the cheese for pepper jack cheese and get an extra kick! Better yet - habanero jack if you like extra spice!
