ALMOST-FAMOUS CHIMICHANGAS

It has happened to all of us: A restaurant closes and just like that, a favorite dish is gone forever. For thousands of fans of the Tex-Mex chain Chi-Chi's, which shuttered its last 65 restaurants in 2004, that dish was the chimichanga: a big tortilla stuffed with beef, seafood or chicken, lettuce, jack cheese and salsa, and topped with a secret "zesty Mexi-sauce." We've seen endless message- board posts from fans pondering the recipe and reminiscing about that unforgettable topping. Now they can taste it again: Chefs in Food Network Kitchens re-created the old favorite from memory.

Almost-Famous Chimichangas image

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Melt the butter with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a skillet; transfer to a bowl. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in the skillet. Add the onion, garlic and jalapeno and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the chili powder, cumin, cinnamon and 1 teaspoon salt; toast 30 seconds. Add the tomato and cilantro and cook until slightly dry, about 2 minutes. Stir in the chicken and sour cream and warm through. Remove from the heat.
  • Brush a rimmed baking sheet with some of the butter-oil mixture. Spread 2 tablespoons refried beans down the center of each tortilla, leaving a 2-inch border on both ends. Top with 1 cup chicken mixture and 1/4 cup cheese. Fold in the ends and roll up.
  • Put the chimichangas seam-side down on the baking sheet; brush with the butter-oil mixture. Bake 8 to 10 minutes per side, brushing again after you flip. Top with the sauce, more cheese, lettuce and tomato. Serve with rice and the remaining beans.
  • Saute onions and garlic cloves in a skillet with vegetable oil. Add a pinch each of chili powder, cumin, sugar and salt; cook 30 seconds. Stir in green chiles; cook 2 minutes. Add chicken broth and simmer until thickened, then puree. Stir in cilantro.

Steps:

  • After stewing the meat on a crockpot or pan drain off liquid and reserve.
  • Shred and chop meat-set aside.
  • In a large skillet cook onion and garlic with just a touch of oil and cook until onion is just browning.
  • Add the meat, chilies, oregano, salt and red pepper and cook on low for 10 minutes.
  • Add adobo sauce if needed, you don't want a totaly dry mixture and you dont want it soggy.

  • Lightly oil the tops and bake in a 425 oven for 20 minutes or a 375 oven for 35-40 minutes-your choice.
  • With the juices from the cooked meat I make a spicy gravy to offer with this.
  • When done remove from oven.
  • Serve with condiments, spanish rice and refried beans.
  • Believe me when I say you will roll away from the table!

Baked Chimichangas image

Steps:

  • 1. In large skillet, brown ground beef and onions until beef is no longer pink. Drain well.
  • 2. Stir in green chiles, tomato sauce, water, and taco seasoning packet. (If you are using your own taco seasoning, you probably won't need quite as much water. I used about 1/3 cup). Bring to a boil, then turn down heat and simmer for about 8 minutes, or until thickened. Stir in refried beans.
  • 3. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a rimmed baking pan with parchment paper or foil (spray foil with non stick spray). Spoon about 1/3 cup meat mixture onto tortilla. Top with 3 tablespoons of shredded cheese (it is slightly possible that I may have used more than that!), and 1 tablespoon of salsa verde. You could use red salsa here, whatever you prefer. Fold up the four sides of the tortilla (see pictures), and place seam side down on prepared baking sheet. Brush chimichangas lightly and evenly with oil (or spray them with canola cooking spray).
  • 4. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with your favorite toppings!

1 lb ground chuck
1 cup chopped onion
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1/2 cup water
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package taco seasoning
1 (15 ounce) can refried beans
8 burrito-size flour tortillas
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Mexican blend cheese
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa, divided
1 tablespoon vegetable oil (I used vegetable spray instead)

BAKED VEGETARIAN CHIMICHANGAS (WARM OR COLD)

These are a deliciously healthy, filling meal, and good for both everyday eating and when your vegetarian guests come over for dinner! My non-vegetarian husband doesn't even miss the meat when I fix these. This is a *big* batch, so plan on leftovers. :) Good for picnics & potlucks, too... see note below.

Baked Vegetarian Chimichangas (Warm or Cold) image

Steps:

  • Sauté the chopped onion, garlic, and mushrooms (if using) in olive oil until onion is soft.
  • Add the chopped chilies, flatten mixture in bottom of pan and sauté, not stirring, until the onions begin to caramelize a little, then remove from heat.
  • In a large bowl, mix remaining ingredients except tortillas.
  • To put together the chimichangas, place about 3/4 to 1 cup of filling on a tortilla, fold the bottom over the filling, fold the sides in, then carefully fold/flip it over to close; repeat until you have as many chimichangas as you want to bake at one time.
  • Place the chimichangas on a cookie sheet, brush each one with 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil, and bake at 400 degrees F for 15 minutes.
  • Sprinkle each with grated cheddar, serve with extra sour cream, guacamole, and salsa, and enjoy!
  • Makes 8 to 10 large chimichangas, depending on the amount of filling you put in each.
  • (Black soybeans are good for those eating low carb because they are lower in carbohydrates and high in fiber. Information on black soybeans available at the Eden Foods website.).
  • Note: To make these for a picnic or potluck, instead of baking them as I would at home, I make the filling and put it in a container, then bring tortillas and toppings and set them all out so folks can make their own sort of burritos. It's very popular! :).

1 cup chopped onion
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup roughly-chopped mushroom (optional)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 (7 ounce) can chopped green chilies
1 (16 ounce) can vegetarian refried beans
1 1/2 cups of your favorite salsa
2 cups cooked brown rice
1 (16 ounce) can regular black beans
1 (16 ounce) can black soybeans
1 ripe avocado, pitted, peeled, and cubed (optional)
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
1 -2 teaspoon chili powder, to taste
2 teaspoons powdered cumin
3 tablespoons sour cream (or non-dairy equivalent)
1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese or 1 1/2 cups soy cheese
grated cheddar cheese (to garnish) or soy cheese (to garnish)
flour tortilla (large burrito size)

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a frying pan on a medium heat, add the chicken thigh fillets and fry for 6-8 mins each side until cooked through, then remove from the pan and set aside. Add another tbsp oil to the pan, then the onion and red pepper and cook until softened, about 5 mins.
  • Shred or cut chicken into small pieces and put in a bowl with the cooked onions and peppers, chillies, cheese and spices, season and mix well.
  • Heat the tortillas briefly in a dry frying pan for a few seconds on each side to make them a little more pliable, or heat in a microwave. Spoon a layer of the beans, if using, into the centre of each tortilla, then spoon some of the chicken mixture on top. Repeat so all the wraps and filling are used up.
  • Roll-up the chimichangas - fold the bottom over the filling, fold the sides in, then roll away from you so all the filling is sealed in.
  • To bake, heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place the chimichangas on an oiled baking sheet and brush lightly with more oil. Bake until golden, about 20-25 mins. Or to fry them, heat a heavy-based frying pan over a medium heat. Once hot, add the 60ml oil to the pan and place the chimichangas seam-side down. Turn gently every few seconds until lightly golden on all sides and the filling has heated through.
  • While they cook, warm the enchilada sauce in a small pan, then spoon some enchilada sauce on a plate, lay the chimichanga on top, and top with soured cream, a little more cheese and some coriander.Nutrition (fried):Kcal 425; fat 24g; saturates 6g; carbs 27g; sugars 5g; fibre 3g; protein 23g; salt 1.85g
