Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 cups cooked chicken (, chopped or shredded)
1 can refried beans
1/2 cup salsa (, your favorite kind)
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves (, crushed)
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 cup shredded cheese (, cheddar or Mexican blend)
2 green onions (, chopped)
3 Tablespoons oil ((vegetable or canola oil))
6 large flour tortillas
Salsa, sour cream and guacamole (, optional)

Steps:

Cook chicken breasts in frying pan until tender and no longer pink. Allow to rest for a few minutes before chopping.
Add refried beans, chicken, cheese, salsa, spices, and green onions to a mix bowl and mix to combine.
Place about 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla.
Fold opposite sides over filling and roll up like a burrito.
For baked chimichangas, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Brush chimichangas lightly with oil and bake for about 25 minutes, until golden and crispy.
For pan fried chimichangas, heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add oil to skillet and place chimichangas seam side down. Turn lightly every 2-30 seconds until lightly golden on all sides.
Serve warm, topped with salsa and sour cream and a side of Authentic Mexican Rice .
