Chicken Filling

Method

Assembly and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, cream cheese, sour cream, shredded cheese, taco seasoning, and green onions. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Fill the Tortillas

    Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Place about 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken filling in the center of the tortilla. Fold the sides over the filling and roll it up tightly to form a chimichanga. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chimis

    In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Once hot, place the filled chimichangas seam-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the chimichangas from the skillet and let them drain on paper towels. Serve warm with sour cream on the side.
