Holly's Note:
I found the original recipe at  Eazy Peazy Mealz and immediately it sounded delicious. I modified the recipe like I always do and this recipe reflects my changes. I cooked some chicken and shredded it, but I didn't include the cooking as part of the recipe. I'd also use leftover cooked chicken another time.  I left out the coriander and I used more paprika and made it smoked paprika, not plain. I always drain my beans and used kidney, not black because The Doctor doesn't like black beans. I also used my homemade Red Enchilada Sauce but bought a can of green.   

This was a hit with my family. Easy, tasty and perfect for a wintery evening!
