Directions

In a large nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until hot.

Cook the onions until browned, about 8 minutes, stirring often.

Add the garlic, cumin, and butternut squash, and cook for another 10 minutes or longer until the butternut squash cubes start to become brown on spots.

Mix in the black beans and corn tortilla strips.

Pour the enchilada sauce over, add the thin cilantro stems.

Stir with a rubber spatular until well combined and evenly coated.

Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cook for about 15 minutes or until the butternut squash becomes fork-tender.

Stir in the lime juice, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Add half of the cheddar cheese, and stir well until the cheese melts.

Remove the skillet from the heat, divide the dish among the serving plates.

Sprinkle with remaining cheese and cilantro leaves on top.

Spoon some sour cream and guacamole if desired over the cheese.

Enjoy with a slice of lime wedge aside.
