  • Measure 2 cups of hot water in a high-powered blender (you can use the tick marks on the side of the blender container to measure). Add the chiles and submerge, allowing them to soak & reconstitute for 10 minutes. Once reconstituted add the remaining listed ingredients. Blend on high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. This yields 4 cups. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Preheat a 10-inch cast iron skillet, or another heavy-bottomed skillet of choice, over medium-high heat for 5 minutes. Once hot, add the oil, peppers, and onions, stirring to combine. Season with a few pinches of salt and ground black pepper. Cook for 10 minutes, until softened and charred.
  • Add the cooked peppers and onions to a large bowl with the pulled chicken, black beans, cheese, and 1/4 cup of the enchilada sauce. Stir to combine.
  • Add 1 cup of the enchilada sauce to a 10×12 baking dish, spreading it into a thin layer to coat the bottom of the pan. Fill each tortilla with 1/2 cup of the filling, then roll into an enchilada and place snuggly on the bottom of the pan, seam side down. Repeat with the remaining filling and tortillas. Pour 1 cup of the sauce down the center of the enchiladas, spreading it over the surface of the enchiladas.

  • Begin by making the sauce. In a small sauce pot, combine the chili powder, flour, and oil. Heat over a medium flame, while stirring, for one to two minutes to toast the spices and flour. Whisk in the water, tomato paste, cumin, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Allow the mixture to come to a simmer, at which point it will thicken. Once thick enough to coat a spoon, taste and add salt as needed (1/2 to 3/4 tsp). Set the sauce aside.
  • Toast the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium flame until they are just flecked with brown on each side. The tortillas should be slightly more firm, but still pliable enough to roll. Stack the tortillas on a clean plate as they come out of the skillet.
  • Prepare a casserole dish by coating with non-stick spray, then spread a layer of enchilada sauce over the bottom (1/2 to 1 cup). Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add about 1/4 cup of refried beans to each tortilla, plus a small pinch of shredded cheese. Roll the tortilla tightly around the beans and cheese, then place seam side down in the casserole dish. Continue until all of the tortillas are filled. Pour another 1/2 to 1 cup enchilada sauce over the rolled enchiladas in the dish, leaving some of the edges exposed so they can become brown and crispy. Top with the remaining shredded cheese.
