These stacked enchiladas with turkey and chipotle beans offer a fresh, modern take on a classic Mexican-inspired favourite. Instead of the traditional rolling technique, the corn tortillas are layered with savoury refried beans, smoky chipotle chillies and tender turkey meat to create satisfying, individual towers. The combination of Monterey Jack and salty feta adds a lovely depth of flavour, while the chipotle provides a gentle heat that warms the palate without being overpowering.
As a high-protein dish, this recipe is an excellent way to use up leftover roast turkey or chicken for a nutritious midweek dinner. Served with refreshing diced tomatoes and creamy avocado, these stacks are both colourful and comforting. They are perfect for a family supper or a casual weekend gathering where you want to serve something impressive yet straightforward to assemble.

How to make Stacked Enchiladas with Turkey and Chipotle Beans
Position rack in centre of oven and preheat to 93°C. Bring enchilada sauce to simmer in medium skillet over medium heat. Reduce heat to very low. Combine refried beans and chipotles in another medium skillet. Stir bean mixture over medium heat until heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Dip 1 tortilla into enchilada sauce just until softened, about 10 seconds. Using tongs, transfer tortilla to ovenproof plate. Spread 80ml bean mixture over. Top with 1 tablespoon spring onions. Dip second tortilla into sauce; place atop bean mixture. Top with 80g turkey meat, then 1 tablespoon spring onions. Dip third tortilla into sauce. Place atop turkey; sprinkle with 40g Jack cheese, then 1 tablespoon spring onions. Dip fourth tortilla into sauce; place atop Jack cheese. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons queso fresco. Repeat procedure with remaining tortillas, bean mixture, spring onions, turkey, Jack cheese, and queso fresco. Transfer to oven and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Drizzle remaining enchilada sauce over tortilla stacks. Sprinkle each with diced tomatoes, avocado, and remaining spring onions and serve warm.
*Chipotle chillies are simply dried, smoked jalapeños, they're sold canned in a spicy tomato sauce, sometimes called adobo. Find them at some supermarkets, specialty foods stores, and Latin markets.
