Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, sauté the chopped onion and bell pepper over medium heat until softened.
Add the shredded chicken, black beans, corn, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine and heat through.
Spray a 9-inch round baking dish with cooking spray. Lay 4 corn tortillas on the bottom to cover the dish.
Spread half of the chicken mixture evenly over the tortillas. Drizzle about 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce on top. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of shredded cheese.
Place another layer of 4 corn tortillas over the cheese. Repeat the layers of chicken mixture, sauce, and cheese.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve with optional toppings like sour cream, sliced avocado, and chopped cilantro.
