Instructions

1
|
Preheat oven to 350°F.
2
|
Spoon about 1/2 cup of salsa verde into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Set aside.
3
|
Finely mince the cilantro and set aside. Finely dice the peppers and onion.
4
|
Set a large skillet over medium high heat and pour in olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the peppers and onion.
5
|
Cook the vegetables, stirring frequently, until softened and slightly browned, 6-8 minutes. Add the black beans, cumin, coriander, and salt and pepper. Cook, continuing to stir, for 1-2 minutes longer.
6
|
Remove the skillet from the heat. Transfer the black bean and vegetable mixture to a large mixing bowl.
7
|
Crack the eggs into a separate mixing bowl and beat until smooth.
8
|
Return the skillet to the stovetop and turn the heat to medium-low. Add the olive oil.
9
|
Once the oil is shimmering, pour the eggs into the skillet. Cook, folding the eggs with a rubber spatula, until they are softly scrambled, 2-3 minutes. Take care not to overcook the eggs. Season with salt and black pepper.
10
|
Transfer the eggs to the bowl with the black bean mixture and add 1/3 of the shredded cheese. Mix with a rubber spatula to combine.
11
|
Place one warmed tortilla on a dinner plate. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the black bean and egg mixture into the center of the tortilla. Using clean hands, tightly roll the enchilada and place seam-side down in the sauced casserole dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
12
|
Once all the tortillas are rolled and arranged in the baking dish, pour the remaining salsa verde evenly over the enchiladas. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese over the top.
13
|
Bake the enchiladas on middle rack of oven until the edges are bubbling and the cheese is melted and slightly golden brown, 22-25 minutes.
14
|
Check to see that enchiladas are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.
15
|
Sprinkle with the minced cilantro. Serve with diced avocado and sour cream, if desired.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Tortilla Technique 🌯
    Warm corn tortillas briefly in a skillet with a touch of oil before filling to prevent cracking and improve flexibility.
  • Bean Prep Perfection 🫘
    Drain and rinse canned black beans thoroughly, then pat dry to prevent excess moisture in your enchiladas.
  • Egg Scramble Secret 🥚
    Scramble eggs just until they're barely set - they'll continue cooking in the oven and remain creamy and soft.
  • Verde Sauce Layering 🌶️
    Spread a thin layer of salsa verde on the bottom of the baking dish before adding enchiladas to prevent sticking and add extra flavor.
  • Cheese Melting Mastery 🧀
    Add cheese during the last 3-4 minutes of baking to achieve perfect melting without overcooking or burning.
