1
Put the black beans, chicken, corn, salsa, taco seasoning, and water in a crockpot.
-
2
If your salsa is not very saucy, be sure to include the 1/4 cup water or more if necessary.
-
3
Cook on high for about 3 hours (or longer on the low setting) until chicken is cooked through.
-
4
You can also cut the chicken breasts into halves to help them cook faster.
-
5
Use 2 forks to shred the chicken and mix everything together.
-
6
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Soften the corn tortillas in the microwave, 3 at a time, for about 25 seconds.
-
7
Fill them with a few tablespoons of filling, roll once, and place seam-side down in a large baking dish (I did 2 smaller baking dishes).
-
8
Continue until all tortillas have been filled, rolled and placed in the dish.
-
9
Be sure to pack them in tightly next to each other so that they dont come apart.
-
10
Sprinkle evenly with the shredded cheese and bake for about 15-20 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly and everything is heated through.
-
11
Remove from oven and drizzle with crema.
-
12
Sprinkle with avocado pieces, fresh cilantro, and Cotija cheese crumbles.
-
13
Notes: The corn tortillas will start to break apart on the top during baking if you dont warm them up enough prior to baking.
-
14
For the crema, I just made a fake-out version with about 3 tablespoons sour cream and 2 tablespoons cream.
-
15
I whisked it together until it was smooth, creamy, and drizzle-able.
-
16
Also, I used part yellow corn and part shoepeg corn, which made the texture more interesting.
