Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp.

    salted butter

  • 1

    onion, diced

  • 1

    15-ounce can green enchilada sauce

  • 1

    7-ounce can chopped green chiles

  • 1 Tbsp.

    adobo sauce (from a can of chipotles)

  • 13

    corn tortillas

  • 4 cups

    freshly grated cheddar or cheddar-jack cheese

  • 1

    10-ounce package frozen corn, thawed and patted dry

  • 1

    15-ounce can refried beans

  • Pico de gallo and chopped fresh cilantro, for topping

Directions

    1. Step 1Preheat the oven to 375˚. Melt the butter in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onion and cook until golden brown, 8 minutes.
    2. Step 2Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the enchilada sauce, green chiles, and adobo sauce. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the sauce to a bowl and reserve.
    3. Step 3Cover the sauce in the skillet with 4 tortillas so that they overlap slightly in the center and come up the sides a little.
    4. Step 4Top the tortillas with 1¼ cups cheese and half of the corn. Dollop half of the refried beans on top and drizzle with
      ½ cup of the reserved green sauce. Add 4 more tortillas and repeat the layering process with 1¼ cups cheese, the remaining corn, the remaining beans, and ½ cup green sauce.
    5. Step 5Top with the remaining 5 tortillas and the remaining green sauce and cheese. Cover the skillet with foil and bake until hot and bubbly, about 35 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until set, another 10 minutes. Let stand about 10 minutes before serving. Top with pico de gallo and cilantro.
