I made this recipe at the fire hall and it was a big hit! It is somewhat healthier as well.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless chicken breasts, diced
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 large tomato, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, cut into strips
- ½ large onion, cut into strips
- ¾ cup water
- 2 (1.27 ounce) packets fajita seasoning
- 10 (6 inch) corn tortillas, cut in quarters
- 1 (16 ounce) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
- 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
- 1 (16 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
- ¼ cup green onions, chopped
- ¼ cup chopped cilantro
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
Step 2
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add chicken; cook and stir until browned on all sides, about 6 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate.
Step 3
Heat oil in the hot skillet. Add tomato, bell pepper, and onion; cook and stir until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Mix in cooked chicken, water, and fajita seasoning.
Step 4
Line the bottom of the prepared pan with 5 tortillas; pour pinto beans on top. Spread 1/2 of the chicken mixture over the beans; cover with Cheddar cheese. Layer the remaining tortillas, black beans, and chicken mixture on top. Cover with aluminum foil.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until tortillas are lightly browned and chicken juices run clear, 25 to 30 minutes. Top with green onions and cilantro.
