Ingredients
- 2 Teaspoon Olive Oil
- 1 Large Yellow Onion Diced
- 1 Teaspoon Garlic Minced
- 1 Pound Ground Turkey
- 1 Teaspoon Chili Powder
- ½ Teaspoon Ground Pepper
- 2 Teaspoons Tomato Paste
- 1 Can Of Black Beans rinsed well and drained
- 1 Teaspoon Knorr Caldo De Pollo
- 1 Whole Lime Juiced
- 12 Yellow Corn Tortillas
- 1 Cup Shredded Cheese
- 1, 14 Oz Can Of Green Enchilada Sauce
Instructions
- Sauté Onions: Add oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. Dice the onion and add it to the skillet and sauté for 6-8 minutes until the diced onions are translucent.
- Add Turkey and Spices: Add the ground turkey and chop it up. Add the spices and tomato paste and mix.
- Add Beans and Sauce: Add the canned black beans and Caldo de Pollo, and mix. Light coat the pan in enchilada sauce.
- Heat Tortillas: Microwave the corn tortillas for 1 minute. They will be hot but as they cool, they will be pliable enough to roll and not break.
- Fill Up the Tortillas & Roll: Add a heaping tablespoon of meat and beans to the center of the tortilla and roll. Dab a little enchilada sauce on the inside lip of the tortilla so as you roll flour tortillas over the outside lip, the sauce keeps it rolled close.
- Top with Enchilada Sauce and Cheese and Cook. Fill the pan with enchiladas, then add more of the remaining enchilada sauce to the tops of the enchiladas. Cook at 375°f for 6-8 minutes, add cheese, and then cook for 3 minutes.
- Top and Serve: Let cool then enjoy topped with sour cream, chives, and or cilantro.
Notes
When you make Air Fryer enchiladas, remember to line Air Fryer basket with some parchment paper before you layer the tortilla rolls.
Stick to a thin layer of the enchiladas to get that perfect crisp texture you're looking for.
If you're using cooked chicken breasts, just remember to season it well before you load it into the tortillas. Using seasoned chicken will ensure that your enchiladas are full of flavor.
If you want to swap the seasonings, you can simply use a taco seasoning. Try this Homemade Taco Seasoning recipe here!
