    From the Test Kitchen

    To fill soft flour tortillas, you’ll make a hearty filling of black beans, zucchini, and poblano pepper, then top it all with an irresistibly rich guajillo pepper sauce and melty monterey jack before baking. The bold flavors are perfectly tempered by finishing dollops of cooling sour cream.

    • 4 Flour Tortillas
    • 1 15.5-Oz Can Black Beans
    • ½ cup Long Grain White Rice
    • 1 Poblano Pepper
    • 1 Zucchini
    • ⅓ cup Guajillo Chile Pepper Sauce
    • 1 Tbsp Mexican Spice Blend (Ancho Chile Powder, Smoked Paprika, Garlic Powder, Ground Cumin & Dried Mexican Oregano)
    • 2 cloves Garlic
    • ¼ cup Sour Cream

    1 Cook the rice

    Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 450°F. Carefully rinse the rice (sifting through for any impurities).Drain thoroughly. In a medium pot, combine the rice, a big pinch of salt, half the spice blend (you will have extra), and 1 cup of water. Heat to boiling on high. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, without stirring, 13 to 15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Turn off the heat and fluff with a fork.

    2 Prepare the ingredients

    Meanwhile, wash and dry the fresh produce. Medium dice the zucchini. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Drain and rinse the beans. Grate the cheese on the large side of a box grater. Cut off and discard the stem of the pepper. Halve lengthwise; remove the ribs and seeds, then medium dice. Thoroughly wash your hands and cutting board immediately after handling.
