Ingredients
- 1 can refried beans
- 4 extra large soft flour tortillas
- 1 pound shredded chicken
- 1 cup mild or medium green chile sauce
- 8 oz Monterrey Jack cheese shredded
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- To make the tortillas more pliable, you can quickly warm them in the microwave or on a dry skillet for a few seconds. This makes them easier to fold without cracking.
- Lay out each tortilla, and in the center of each one, spread a generous spoonful of refried beans. Top the beans with shredded chicken and a sprinkle of shredded Monterey Jack cheese.
- Drizzle about 1/4 cup of mild or medium green chile sauce over the chicken and cheese on each tortilla.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly, similar to a burrito. Place each rolled chimichanga seam side down in a baking dish.
- Sprinkle the remaining shredded Monterey Jack cheese over the top of the chimichangas. Pour any remaining green chile sauce over them as well.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chimichangas are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Carefully remove the chimichangas from the oven and let them cool for a minute or two. Serve them hot with additional green chile sauce if desired.
