Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2 whole chicken breast
- oil
- all-purpose seasoning
Cut the chicken breasts into thin pieces, drizzle with a little oil and season all over with all-purpose seasoning (or salt and black pepper).
Heat a skillet over medium-high until hot; cook the chicken 3 to 4 minutes per side, to an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
- chunky salsa
- 8 oz Hatch peppers
- 1 cup refried beans
- queso Oaxaca
- medium cheddar cheese
- flour tortillas
Add the Hatch peppers and refried beans and mix; lastly add the queso Oaxaca and medium cheddar to finish the filling.
Place a good amount of filling off-centre on a soft-taco-size flour tortilla, fold in the ends, overlap one side.
Rolling and sealing the chimichangas
- flour
- water
Seal the edge with a paste of equal parts flour and water so nothing oozes out, and roll up.
- oil
Fry in hot oil on medium heat, so it does not get too hot and burn, until golden and crispy on both sides.
- chipotle sauce
- salsa
- sour cream
- avocado
- pico de gallo
Serve plain with rice, or top with chipotle sauce, salsa, sour cream, avocado and pico de gallo.
