Ingredients

  • 1 (10 ounce) can red enchilada sauce, divided
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ of a small onion, finely diced (about ½ cup)
  • ½ of a green bell pepper, seeded and finely diced (about ½ cup)
  • 1 large clove garlic, minced (about 1 teaspoon)
  • 2 cups pulled pork
  • ¾ cup BBQ sauce
  • 2 cups (about 8 ounces) grated cheddar cheese, Mexican cheese blend, or Monterey Jack cheese, divided
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (8.5 ounce) can corn, drained
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon chili powder
  • Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste
  • 8 (8-inch) flour tortillas
  • Optional toppings: sliced green onions; chopped fresh cilantro; chopped red onion; diced avocado or guacamole; sour cream; lime wedges

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Spread about ¼ cup of the enchilada sauce in the bottom of the pan; set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and bell pepper; cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant (about 30 seconds). Remove from the heat. Stir in the pulled pork, bbq sauce, 1 cup of the cheese, beans, corn, cumin, and chili powder. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if desired.
  3. Place about ½ cup of the pork mixture down the center of each tortilla.
  4. Roll up and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
  5. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over top. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup of cheese.
  6. Bake, uncovered, for about 20-25 minutes (or until the enchiladas are heated through and the edges of the tortillas are a bit crispy). Garnish with desired toppings and serve warm.

Notes

  • This recipe calls for cooked pulled pork. It's a great way to use up leftover slow cooker pulled pork from a previous meal, but if you don't have leftovers, you can also make your own Mexican pulled pork at home. For an even quicker option, I like to purchase pulled pork from a local country market, pick it up from the nearby bbq restaurant, or just buy prepared pulled pork in the refrigerated case at the grocery store.
