Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced yellow onion and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

Stir ground cumin and chili powder into the onion and cook for about 30 seconds. Then stir in the all-purpose flour. Slowly whisk in the chicken stock, tomato sauce, and minced garlic. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes.

In a bowl, mix together the cooked shredded chicken, 1/2 teaspoon salt, black pepper, diced green chiles, and drained black beans.

Pour 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Pour another 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce into the chicken mixture and stir well.

Dip 6 corn tortillas in the remaining sauce to coat them and line the bottom of the casserole dish with them. Divide the chicken mixture in half and add one half on top of the tortillas in the casserole.

Top the chicken layer with 1 cup of shredded colby jack cheese. Dip the remaining 6 corn tortillas in the enchilada sauce and arrange them on top of the cheese layer. Add the remaining chicken mixture on top of the tortillas.

Pour any remaining enchilada sauce over the casserole and top with 2 cups of colby jack cheese.

Bake uncovered for 25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
