- In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, corn, black beans, cumin, chili powder, and a portion of the reduced-fat mozzarella cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
- Assemble the Enchiladas:
- Spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Place a small amount of the chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla, roll up, and place seam side down in the baking dish.
- Pour the sauce evenly over the top of the enchiladas. Sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella cheese and reduced-fat cheddar cheese.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve:
- Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
