Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potato (Diced and roasted)
- 1 cup chicken, breast (Cooked and shredded, rotisserie chicken works well)
- 1 15-ounce cans black beans (Drained and rinsed)
- 1 cup pico de gallo
- 6 ounces cheese, cheddar (Shredded) I like vegan cheddar cheese.
- 2 16 ounce jar salsa verde
- 1 12-ounce package corn (Thawed)
- 12 tortillas, gluten-free
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 Pinch sea salt (To taste)
- 1 Pinch black pepper, ground (To taste)
Optional Toppings for Chicken Enchilada Casserole
- 1 cup guacamole

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Add sweet potatoes, chicken, black beans, corn, salt, and pepper to a medium mixing bowl. Toss mixture together.
- Grease a 9-inch baking dish with a tablespoon of olive oil. Spoon 1 cup of salsa Verde into the bottom of the dish.
- Layer 3 tortillas, ½ of the sweet potato, bean, and corn mixture, then 1 cup of salsa into the dish. Repeat the layering with remaining tortillas, salsa, pico, and top with shredded cheese.
- Bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until bubbling and golden brown all around the edges.
- Serve immediately and top with pico, guacamole, and cilantro if desired, or you can serve this chicken enchilada casserole simply as is.
