Roast Chicken Chimichangas

12:06 PM Posted by patty , , No comments


I got out of work later than I anticipated and needed to make dinner fast. These were easier to make than enchiladas and took me only 30 minutes to get dinner ready.  Although what I like most about them is that it isn't fried.  Yum yum!

Roast Chicken Chimichangas

ingredients
  • 2 1/2 cups shredded roasted skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup monterey jack cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 (4.5-oz) can chopped green chiles, drained
  • 1 (16 oz) can fat-free refried beans 
  • 6 (8-inch) flour tortillas 
  • Cooking spray 
  • Bottled green salsa
directions
  1. Preheat oven to 500°.
  2. Combine first 7 ingredients in a large bowl; toss well.
  3. Spread 1/4 cup beans down center of each tortilla. Top each tortilla with 2/3 cup chicken mixture; roll up. Place rolls, seam sides down, on a large baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Coat tops of chimichangas with cooking spray. Bake at 500° for 7 minutes. Serve with salsa.
