Steps
In a large skillet (3 quarts or larger), warm the oil over medium low heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes.
Next add the chopped red bell pepper, spices and diced green chilies. Cook for another 3 minutes, continuing to stir intermittently.
Lastly, add the black beans, corn, salsa and rice. Stir everything until well combined. Add salt, to taste, if desired.
Turn the oven to broil then top the mixture in the skillet with the shredded cheese. Place the skillet in the oven and cook for about 3-4 minutes until the cheese is golden and bubbly on top. Serve warm with desired toppings and enjoy!

Karla Krug on 2026-05-24 (5 stars): Delish! Will be a repeat recipe for sure.
Thank you - KK - New Jersey
Terri Wyman on 2025-12-08 (5 stars): This was wonderful. My husband is a meat guy, so I added a lb of ground meat in the first step. I also was missing enchilada sauce, so substituted taco sauce (16 oz because of the meat addition). My husband loved it! New fav for sure.
Christine on 2025-08-22 (5 stars): Delicious! Thank you,
Kris on 2025-06-23 (5 stars): I’ve made this countless times over the last 8 years. Highly suggest! Today I had to improvise due to missing ingredients and I used cooked sweet potato instead of rice and red kidney beans instead of black beans. For toppings I used avocado, tomato, green onion and Greek yogurt. BEST ADDITIONS IVE DONE! I mashed it up for my 7 month old and he devoured it. Great recipe that works well with ingredient changes! Make it!

Christina Stone on 2024-10-18 (5 stars): So easy and everyone liked it. It was the main meal for the vegetarians, and a side item for the carnivores.
Betty-Lee on 2024-08-14 (5 stars): Made this for Mexican night at church. Great side dish. I added Rotel tomatoes and used taco seasoning so I would not have to buy all the expensive spices that I did not have. It was a wonderfully tasty dish. I made it earlier in the day so the flavors had time to mel.
