Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 pound of shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup of corn kernels
- 1 can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 1 cup of enchilada sauce
- 8 small flour tortillas
- 1 cup of shredded cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent.
- Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until they are pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the black beans, corn, and 2-3 chipotle peppers from the can, chopped. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Pour in the enchilada sauce and stir to combine. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from heat.
- Spread a small amount of the bean and corn mixture onto each tortilla, then add a few shrimp on top. Roll up the tortillas and place them seam-side down in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Pour any remaining bean and corn mixture over the top of the enchiladas, then sprinkle with shredded cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot. Enjoy!
