Chicken Enchiladas with Creamy Pumpkin Sauce
- 1- 1/4 pound Ground Chicken
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 can (15 Oz. Size) Black Beans, Drained
- 1- 1/2 cup Frozen Corn
- 1 package (1 Oz. Size) Taco Seasoning (I Prefer The Trader Joe's Brand)
- 1/4 cups Water
- 1 can (15 Oz. Size) Pumpkin Puree
- 2 whole Fresno Peppers, Stems Removed (use 1 Or Remove The Seeds To Reduce Spice)
- 1 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 1/4 teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
- 1- 1/2 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
- 8 whole Whole-wheat Tortillas
- 8 ounces, weight White Cheddar Cheese, Grated
- Avocado, For Garnish
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Brown chicken in a pan mover medium heat, breaking it up with the back of a spoon.
- Once chicken is browned, add garlic, black beans, corn, taco seasoning, and water.
- Stir together and let simmer for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- While meat, beans and corn are simmering, make the pumpkin sauce.
- In a blender, blend together pumpkin puree, peppers, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper.
- Pulse or stir yogurt into sauce.
- To assemble enchiladas, place a few spoonfuls of chicken mixture into a tortilla; fold in bottom and top edges and roll up.
- Place seam-side-down into baking dish (I used a 7x11 Pyrex baking dish).
- Do this with the remainder of the mixture and place side-by-side in baking pan.
- Spoon about 2 cups of pumpkin enchilada sauce on top (I had extra pumpkin sauce and used it on nachos!)
- and then sprinkle cheese over top.
- Bake in 375 degrees F oven for about 15 minutes, until cheese is melted.
- Let cool for a few minutes before eating.
- Enjoy!
