Roasted Chicken Chimichangas recipe?

[LaurenG]

Hi everyone, I have been searching the boards for this recipe for the last 30 minutes, and thought I'd just post for it. Sorry, I can't seem to find the actual recipe posted, just the title all over the BBs! Anyone have it on hand? It sounds like everyone really liked that one and I just picked up a rotisserie chicken at Costco today! :)

is this it?

Roast Chicken Chimichangas

These chimichangas are oven-browned instead of deep-fried. The filling uses queso fresco. If it's not available, try shredded Monterey Jack.


2 1/2 cups shredded roasted skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 cup (4 ounces) crumbled queso fresco cheese
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 garlic clove, minced
1 (4.5-ounce) can chopped green chiles, drained
1 (16-ounce) can fat-free refried beans
6 (8-inch) flour tortillas
Cooking spray
1/2 cup bottled green salsa

Preheat oven to 500°.
Combine first 7 ingredients in a large bowl; toss well.

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.

Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 1 chimichanga and about 4 teaspoons salsa)
