Ingredients

  • 10 large Flour Tortillas

  • 1 large Onion diced
  • 2 tablespoons Mexican Chili Powder
  • 2 tablespoons Tomato Paste
  • 4 Yellow or Red Roma Tomatoes diced

  • Next, add roma tomatoes and cook for about two minutes on med-high heat.
  • Then, add chili powder, tomato paste, chicken broth, paprika and salt.
  • Bring to a boil and simmer on low for about 5 minutes.

  • Then, fill each tortilla with about two tablespoons re fried beans, then the chicken mixture and lastly two tablespoons cheese.
  • Place the mixture close to one side of the tortilla for easier rolling.
  • Roll the tortilla over the filling once and tuck under. Then grab the two sides and fold them over the rolled part of the tortilla and then completely roll the tortilla to close the chimichanga.
  • When oil is hot enough, place the chimichanga in the pan, folded side down.
  • Fry for about one minute and turn.
  • Brown both sides lightly and drain.
  • Repeat for each tortilla.
  • Top chimichangas with sour cream, green onions and black olives.
