I tried this recipe today. They were good but would be better made with beef and shredded cheese.
Chicken Chimichangas
1 lb cooked chicken breast
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa (your favorite)
1 (16 ounce) can refried beans (fat free is fine)
1 envelope taco seasoning mix
1 (8 ounce) package monterey jack pepper cheese
10 flour tortillas (about)
Cut block of cheese into approx. 10"sticks".
Dice or shred chicken (your preference).
In large skillet combine chicken, salsa, beans and seasoning mix.
Cook and stir over medium heat until thoroughly heated.
In another skillet, heat tortillas (1 at a time) for about 30 seconds per side so that they will roll up easier.
Remove tortilla from skillet and place 1/3 cup chicken mixture on each tortilla near 1 edge.
Top with a cheese stick, then roll up and wrap in aluminium foil.
Bake at 350 (in foil) for 30 minutes.
If you want to crisp it up a bit, remove the foil for the last 5 minutes or so of bake time.
