Crunchy Baked Chimichangas

I found this recipe in Family Feasts for $75 a Week.


1 1/2 c. cooked chicken
1/2 c. picante sauce
1 c. shredded cheddar cheese
2 green onions, chopped
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. oregano
6 8-inch flour tortillas
2 Tbsp. butter, melted


Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Combine chicken, picante sauce, cheese, onions, and seasonings in a medium-sized bowl.  Divide mixture evenly among center of tortillas.  Fold opposite sides of tortillas over filling, then roll up from the bottom and place, seam sides down onto a baking sheet.  Brush with melted butter.  Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes.  Serve with salsa, guacamole, etc.

Variation:  Can substitute with ground beef cooked with taco seasoning.  Or cooked chicken, steamed broccoli and 1/2 c. ranch dressing.  I have to admit that I haven't tried the variations but they sound pretty yummy.
