Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground turkey
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 medium Onion, finely diced
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Canned black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup Frozen corn kernels, thawed
• 8 Flour tortillas (8-inch)
• 16 ounces Red enchilada sauce (store-bought or homemade)
• 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional, for garnish)
• 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the ground turkey to the skillet and cook, breaking it into small pieces with a spoon, until fully browned, about 6-7 minutes.

Step 5

Sprinkle the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the turkey. Stir well to evenly coat the meat with the spices.

Step 6

Stir in the black beans and corn. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through, then remove the skillet from the heat.

Step 7

Spread 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 8

Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon about 1/3 cup of the turkey mixture into the center of the tortilla. Roll it up tightly and place it seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

Step 9

Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas, ensuring all are covered. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Remove the enchiladas from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped cilantro, if desired, and serve with sour cream on the side.
