Instructions
Creating delicious cooker enchiladas is straightforward. Follow these simple steps for a successful meal:
1. Prep the Cooker: Start by greasing your slow cooker with cooking spray or olive oil to prevent sticking.
2. Mix the Filling: In a large bowl, combine cooked shredded chicken, black beans, corn, diced onion, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Assemble the Tortillas: Take a flour tortilla and add a generous scoop of the filling mixture in the center. Sprinkle with cheese, then roll the tortilla tightly.
4. Place in Cooker: Lay each rolled tortilla seam-side down in the slow cooker. Continue this process until all tortillas are filled and placed in the cooker.
5. Add Sauce and Cheese: Pour enchilada sauce evenly over the tortillas. Sprinkle any remaining cheese over the top.
6. Cook: Cover the slow cooker and set to low for approximately 30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
7. Serve: Once cooked, gently scoop out the enchiladas with a spatula. Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and alongside sour cream or Greek yogurt if desired.
These steps will lead you to a fantastic and satisfying dinner experience with minimal fuss.
