Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 4 (6 inch) flour tortillas

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided, or as needed

  • 1 onion, thinly sliced

  • 1 poblano chile, diced

  • 1 red bell pepper, diced

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained

  • 1 cup frozen corn, thawed

  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano

  • salt to taste

  • ¼ cup mild enchilada sauce

  • 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend

  • ¼ cup sour cream

  • ½ cup crumbled queso fresco

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

  • 1 dash hot pepper sauce (Optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place tortillas on a baking sheet covered with foil; lightly brush each with olive oil and prick all over with a fork.

  2. Bake tortillas in the preheated oven until they are puffed and golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a cooling rack.

  3. Heat remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, poblano chile, and red bell pepper; cook and stir until onions are translucent and lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in black beans, corn, garlic, oregano, and salt; cook and stir until mixture is heated through, about 5 minutes.

  4. Return tortillas to the foil-lined baking sheet in a single layer; spoon 1 tablespoon enchilada sauce over each tortilla. Top with 1/4 of the black bean and corn mixture and 1/4 of the shredded Mexican cheese.

  5. Bake pizzadillas in the preheated oven until cheese melts, 5 to 6 minutes.

  6. Remove pizzadillas from oven; top each with sour cream, queso fresco, and cilantro. Add a dash of hot pepper sauce to each slice.
