I love chimichangas. I always get them at mexican restaurants when we eat out. I wanted to try my hand at making them at home. It went not too badly. The kids loved them, even if some of my husband's athletes couldn't pronounce them!
Ingredients:
A roast chicken (or 3 chicken breast) cooked and shredded (got a tip for that!)
diced yellow pepper
diced red pepper
diced mushrooms
1 tsp Epicure's taco seasoning
1 pinch of cumin.
LOTS of cheese
Tortilla shells
Preheat your oven at 350 degrees. If you have a stand mixer, toss your chicken in there and it will shred up really nicely. Add your seasoning and mix for a few minutes. In a sauce pan, sautee your peppers, and mushrooms. Add your seasoned meat. Simmer for a few minutes then add grated cheese. I like a lot of cheese but add as much as you'd like.
Spoon the meat mix into your tortillas and roll them up. Place them in an oven save pan. If you'd like, melt butter with some taco seasoning spoon onto your tortillas before placing in the oven. Bake for about 15 minutes. Serve with sour cream, salsa and/or guacamole.
As Always,
Happy Eating
