Ingredients
- 3 cups chicken Mexican, shredded
- 2 cups refried beans
- 1 cup cheese shredded
- 4 flour tortillas extra large
- vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Heat oil to 375℉.
- Spread 1/2 cup of refried beans in the middle of a flour tortilla leaving about 2-3 inches empty on the sides.
- Spread about 3/4 cup of Mexican shredded chicken on top of the refried beans and sprinkle cheese on top.
- Fold tortilla over the fillings then fold both sides toward the middle.
- Roll up the tortilla to create a burrito shape.
- Fry chimichanga in the hot oil for 4-5 minutes turning over half way for all the sides to get fried to a deep golden brown. Using tongs place on a paper towel to cool.
- Serve with your choice of toppings like sour cream, cilantro, guacamole, salsa, lettuce and tomatoes.
Notes
- It's important to use the extra large tortillas for this recipe because the tortilla will puff up while it's frying and you want to keep the insides from coming out.
