Dinner Tonight: Rice And Bean Chimichanga Recipe
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for frying
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 4 tablespoons red chile powder
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 12-inch flour tortillas, warmed on a griddle
- 1 cup cooked rice
- 1 cup pinto beans, cooked
- Salt
- Grated Monterey Jack
- Sour cream
- Pour 2 tablespoons of the oil into a pot set over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, and cook for a minute until darkened slightly. Add the red chile powder and the garlic. Stir well, and cook for a minute.
- Slowly add the chicken stock, stirring well to avoid lumps. Season with salt, turn the heat to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes.
- While that's going on, fill a large pot with enough oil to come about 4 inches up the sides. Bring the temperature to 375u0b0F.
- Divide the rice and beans amongst the tortillas. Add a handful of grated Monterey cheese to each. Fold up like a burrito. Secure the ends with a few toothpicks.
- Fry the burritos until golden brown, about 3 minutes total. Drain them on a paper towel. Serve with a ladle full of the sauce and more cheese.
