Instructions

  1. Fold two 24 x 12-inch pieces of aluminum foil in half lengthwise. Place pieces crosswise, overlapping to resemble a “X”, in the bottom and up sides of a 5-quart slow cooker; allow excess foil to hang over the edges. Coat pieces with cooking spray.
  2. Whisk the enchilada sauce, onion powder, chili powder and cumin in a large bowl. Stir in the beans, green pepper, chicken and corn.
  3. Place a tortilla on the bottom of slow cooker. Layer with 1 1/2 cups chicken mixture and 1/2 cup pepper jack. Repeat layers four times, starting with a tortilla. Top with remaining tortilla and pepper jack.
  4. Fold excess foil into slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours (or on high for 2 1/2-3 hours) or until heated through. Turn slow cooker off. Let stand for 10 minutes.
  5. Using excess foil as handles, carefully lift tortilla stack to a serving platter. Sprinkle with cilantro. Serve with salsa and sour cream.
