Let's Get Started!

The Ingredients To Gather Are:

1 tsp. olive oil
½ medium onion, grated
2 garlic cloves, grated
½ tsp salt
6 oz. tomato paste
18 oz. low-sodium chicken stock
2 Tlbs. chili powder
1 tsp. cumin
1 Tlbs. apple cider vinegar
1½ pounds frozen or fresh cheese ravioli
3 cups shredded chicken, divided
1 cup frozen corn, divided
1 cup black beans, divided
8 oz. colby jack cheese, shredded and divided

The Step By Step Directions To Follow:

Bring  large pot of water to a rolling boil. Season liberally with salt, the water should be as salty as the sea. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
While the water comes to a boil, heat a medium saucepan over  medium heat. Add olive oil, onion. Cook until slightly softened, 1-2 minutes. Add garlic and salt, cook another 1-2 minutes until fragrant and softened. Add tomato paste, cook 30 seconds.
Whisk in chicken stock, chili powder, cumin, and vinegar. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 5 minutes. Set aside.
While the sauce simmers, cook the ravioli. Do NOT overcook the ravioli, they will continue to cook in the oven.
Ladle ¼ of the sauce in the bottom of a 9×12 baking pan. Line up ⅓ of the ravioli on the bottom of the pan. Top with half of the chicken, half of the black beans, and half of the corn (1/2 cup). Ladle ¼ more of the sauce on top. Cover in ¼ of the cheese. Repeat ravioli, followed by chicken, black beans, corn, sauce, and ¼ of the cheese. For the final layer, line up remaining ravioli, followed by remaining sauce, and cover in remaining cheese.
Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes until cheese is melted and casserole is hot. Serve with chopped cilantro, green onions, and sour cream if desired.
