Susans Turkey Chimichangas Recipes

SMOKED TURKEY BAKED CHIMICHANGAS

Steps:

• Preheat your toaster oven to 400 degrees F or high.
• Place turkey in a bowl and season with chili powder. Add shredded cabbage, chipotles in adobo, tomato sauce, scallions. Toss filling to combine and season with salt and pepper. Place tortillas in a kitchen towel and set in microwave. Microwave on high for 1 minute. To build, place a generous handful of cheese near one edge of the tortilla. Pile 1/4 of your filling in the tortilla. Tuck sides up and roll tortilla tightly. Repeat to make 4 large stuffed tortilla wraps. Brush the toaster oven baking tray with vegetable or olive oil. Brush the wraps with oil and bake until deep golden all over, 15 to 17 minutes. Top with sour cream, cilantro or parsley and chopped orange or yellow tomato, as garnishes.

THANKSGIVING CHIMICHANGA

Steps:

• Fill a deep-fryer with peanut oil and heat to 350 degrees F. (If you do not have a deep-fryer, you can use a Dutch oven filled with about 4 inches of oil heated to 350 degrees F.)
• Allow the turkey to simmer in the gravy in a medium saucepan for about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Wrap the tortillas in a clean, damp kitchen towel and microwave just long enough to make them pliable, about 20 seconds. Unwrap and lay one on the counter, and layer in your leftover ingredients, starting in the lower center of the tortilla, adding 1/4 cup each of mashed sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, stuffing and the warmed turkey in gravy. Take care to keep the ingredients away from the edges so they don't spill out.
• Fold the bottom half over the filling to the center of the tortilla. Then, fold each remaining side in. The filling should be mostly covered at this point. Roll everything away from you towards the top of the tortilla and secure the seam with toothpicks. Repeat the process until all the burritos have been rolled.
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Fit a rack inside a sheet tray and set aside.
• Carefully place one burrito at a time into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the oil and allow the excess oil to drain over the fryer or pot. Hold on the prepared rack in the oven while you fry the remaining chimichangas. Serve on a bed of flat leaf parsley, orange slices and cranberries. Slice the chimichangas in half, then top with the leftover warm gravy and enjoy.
