CHIMICHANGAS RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE IT - TASTE OF HOME



Chimichangas Recipe: How to Make It - Taste of Home image

Though still debated, Tucson is generally credited as the original home of the chimichanga (fried "burro", as we call them, stuffed with meat, onions and chiles). I've combined several recipes into this one, and it's fairly authentic. —Laura Towns, Glendale, Arizona

CHICKEN CHIMICHANGAS RECIPE | ALLRECIPES



Chicken Chimichangas Recipe | Allrecipes image

Tortillas filled with a chicken, rice, beans and olive mixture - rolled, fried and topped with a piquant avocado mix, sour cream and cheese, all served on a bed of lettuce. Being raised 12 miles from the border of Mexico, I was brought up on Mexican food and learned how to make many of the dishes.

Total Time 45 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 ½ cups chicken broth
1 cup uncooked long-grain rice
½ cup red enchilada sauce
1 ½ onion, diced, divided
6 (12 inch) flour tortillas
4 cups diced cooked chicken breast, divided
1 pound Monterey Jack cheese, shredded, divided
1 (6 ounce) can sliced black olives
4 cups refried beans, divided
¼ cup vegetable oil
3 avocados, peeled and pitted
½ cup finely chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 green onions, diced
¼ cup finely chopped jalapeno chile peppers
1 tomato, diced
2 cups shredded lettuce
1 cup sour cream
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan combine the broth, rice, sauce, and 1 diced onion. Mix and bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and let simmer for about 20 minutes, or until rice is tender.
  • Meanwhile, heat tortillas in a large skillet (so that they are soft enough to fold).
  • When rice mixture is ready, spoon equal amounts of the following onto each tortilla: Chicken, shredded Jack cheese, diced onion, olives, rice mixture and beans. Roll tortillas, tucking in sides to prevent filling from spilling over.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet and fry the filled tortillas, turning, until browned on all sides. Drain on paper towels.
  • To Serve: In a medium bowl combine the avocados, cilantro, lemon juice, green onions, chile peppers and tomatoes. Mash together. Place shredded lettuce on a platter, topped with chimichangas, avocado mix, sour cream and shredded Cheddar cheese.

DISARONNO AMARETTO RECIPE | HOW TO MAKE DISARONNO
For several months artist Bernardino Luini worked closely with a model to help him paint a fresco of the Madonna in Saronno, Italy. As the months passed, the girl, whose name has since been forgotten, fell in love with Bernardino. To show her feelings for him, the girl gave Bernardino a gift of sweet almond-flavored liqueur she made from the trees growing in her garden. The year was 1525, and that bottle is said to have been the first Disaronno Amaretto. The recipe was passed down through the ages, until late in the eighteenth century when the liqueur went into commercial production. Reenact the legend by giving someone a bottle of your own version of the famous liqueur, whether they paint you on a wall or not, with this much-improved version of the recipe that's been on this site since the beginning. You can make other liqueurs at home using my copycat drink recipes, including Bailey's, Kahlua, and Grand Marnier. Source: Top Secret Recipes: Sodas, Smoothies, Spirits & Shakes by Todd Wilbur.
