SOUTH-O-THE-BORDER ESSENTIALS:CHICKEN CHIMICHANGAS
I love a good chimichanga... all that yummy pulled chicken and gooey cheese, lovingly wrapped up in a flour tortilla, fried to perfection, and then covered in a perfect white sauce. So yummy. FYI: I've included recipes for the pulled chicken, and the yummy white sauce. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

CHICKEN - SOUTH OF THE BORDER
I found this recipe in an issue of Good Housekeeping back in the early 80's,when Southwestern/Mexican recipes were hard to come by - at least here in Wisconsin . It's like a Southwestern version of Chicken Parmesan. I used to use Pace Picante on it, but you can adjust it with any salsa or heat level you prefer. I also added the green chiles because I love them! Also would accompany this chicken with home-made Mexican rice, and a picante-based vegetable "stew."

SOUTH OF THE BORDER CHICKEN CASSEROLE
Today I needed easy and I wanted some spice in my life. This casserole was loaded with just the spices I wanted and was super easy. Spanish rice and seasoned pinto's were the perfect sides. Hope you enjoy as much as we did!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 13 X 9-inch pan with cooking spray.
- 2. If cooking chicken, prepare and set aside. Rotissere chicken would work well in this dish. However, I did boil my chicken. Other meat such as pork, turkey or beef would also work well in this dish.
- 3. In a large skillet over a medium heat, saute onion, bell pepper, jalapeno pepper and garlic until tender, about 7 to 8 minutes. Add seasonings; stir to combine.
- 4. Mix tomatoes, both soups, chicken and 2 Tbsps of the cilantro; pour over onion mixture and mix well. Cook for additonal 2 minutes.
- 5. Pour chicken mixture into prepared pan and top with crumbled Tostitos; bake covered for 30 minutes or until it bubbles. NOTE: I use the "Hint of Lime Tostitos". You can use plain.
- 6. While casserole is baking toss cheese and remaining 1 Tbsp of cilantro. After casserole has baked for 30 minutes; remove cover and sprinkle cheese over top; bake 3 minutes uncovered or until cheese melts.

SOUTH OF THE BORDER CHICKEN SANDWICH
This recipe was created from a Baja Chicken Subway sandwich. I had ordered Baja Steak but when I got home and started eating I realized it was chicken but it was SO good I wasn't upset they made my order wrong. So I knew right then I needed to try and replicate it. I think I hit the nail on the head because I enjoyed my version just as much as theirs!!!

Steps:
- I slow cooked my chicken in a small electric roaster but you could boil it. I added the smashed garlic closes and 1/2 sweet onion cut into 3 quarters, salt and pepper.
- Once chicken was done and cooled I cut it into 1/2 inch pieces and shredded it. I added garlic salt to taste.
- Then I added the bacon which I had cooked, cooled and chopped up. The best way I've ever found to cook bacon and the ONLY way I ever cook it is on a baking sheet in the oven at 375º for 22 to 25 minutes, comes out picture perfect every time and I personally don't have a splatter issue.
- Also dice up 1 large bell pepper and one small sweet onion to the size you like, I prefer a very small dice. Add that to the rest of the goodies.
- Toss together until well incorporated. Add salt and pepper if desired to taste. Set aside. At this point you could add chipotle mayo, but this makes a BIG bowl so I waited to add it to the sandwiches. With the chipotle mayo mixed in it would make a great "chicken salad" mix.
- Toast sub buns and add cheese, I use an electric griddle to toast mine and place a lid on top to help melt the cheese. I used Steak buns, I like the softness of the crust but it toasts up great.
- Place generous amount of chicken on very cheesy buns and add plenty of chipotle mayo. It will be messy but it is worth every napkin you use!!!
