BAKED BAJA BEEF CHIMICHANGAS RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Baked Baja Beef Chimichangas Recipe - Food.com image

This is an authentic 40 year-old recipe, and the filling will not taste the same as fast food style chimichangas. The only thing Americanized here is that the chimichangas are baked instead of fried. Caution: If you use leanest ground beef, the filling will seem dry. Serve lots of lettuce, tomatoes and other garnishes listed below with each chimichanga - they are important to this dish's all around flavors and textures.

Total Time 33 minutes

Prep Time 25 minutes

Cook Time 8 minutes

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

  • Wrap tortillas in foil and warm in a 300* oven while making the filling.

OVEN-FRIED BEEF CHIMICHANGAS RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Oven-Fried Beef Chimichangas Recipe - Food.com image

A good, simple alternative to deep-frying. I think I got this from OAM Cookbook years ago. Make sure the tortillas are room temperature or they will crack when you roll them. You can microwave the whole package for about 20 seconds to speed things up.

Total Time 45 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb lean ground beef
1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (16 ounce) can fat-free refried beans
1/2 cup tomato sauce
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
10 (10 inch) flour tortillas
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 cup tomato sauce
1 cup salsa
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 cup Mexican blend cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Brown beef in large skillet; drain, if necessary.
  • Add onions, garlic and salt, and cook until onions are soft.
  • Stir in refried beans and spices. Remove from heat.
  • Scoop 1/3 cup of meat filling a little off center on the tortilla.
  • Fold up edge closest to you over the filling.
  • Fold in each side and roll all the way.
  • Place on cookie sheet and repeat with all the tortillas.
  • Brush melted butter over the chimichangas making sure to get some on the bottom side as well.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown.
  • While the chimichangas are baking, heat the sauce ingredients in a small sauce pan. Keep warm.
  • Serve the chimichanga with the sauce drizzled over the top and sprinkle with cheese, if desired.
  • These can be frozen before baking and kept in a zip top bag. To reheat, let thaw in refrigerator overnight and bake as usual.
