Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with cooking spray.
-
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced sweet potatoes in olive oil until they are slightly tender, about 5-7 minutes.
-
Add the red bell pepper, onion, garlic, and diced green chilies to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften and the flavors to meld.
-
Stir in the black beans, cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, mixing well to ensure all the ingredients are combined and seasoned evenly. Remove the skillet from heat.
-
To assemble the enchiladas, spoon a generous amount of the sweet potato and bean mixture onto a flour tortilla, sprinkle with a handful of shredded cheese, and roll it tightly. Place the filled tortilla seam side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
-
Pour the enchilada sauce over the assembled enchiladas, making sure they are evenly coated.
-
Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top of the enchiladas.
-
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, allowing the enchiladas to heat through and the cheese to melt.
-
Remove the foil and let the enchiladas bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden brown.
-
Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot, with a dollop of sour cream on the side.
