Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- In a 12-inch oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion, poblano pepper, red pepper, and zucchini. Sauté for 4 to 5 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. Stir in the garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Stir in the corn, black beans, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and lime juice. Pour in half of the enchilada sauce and stir. Add the tortilla strips and stir. Pour in the remaining enchilada sauce and stir until all of the tortilla strips are covered in sauce. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until sauce thickens a little. Add in 1 cup of the shredded cheese and stir until the cheese is melted in. Top with the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheese.
- Place the skillet in the preheated oven and cook for 5 minutes or until the cheese on top is melted. Remove from the oven and let the enchiladas sit for 5 minutes. Top with green onion, cilantro, avocado, and radish slices. Scoop the enchiladas onto a plate and serve warm.
