Chimichangas
- 1 pound Ground Beef
- 1/2 cups Chopped Green Pepper
- 1/2 cups Chopped Onion
- 1 can (16 Oz. Can) Refried Beans
- 1/2 cups Picante Sauce
- 1 cup Shredded Cheese
- 1 package Flour Tortilla Shells
- Brown ground beef, green pepper and onion.
- Drain.
- Add refried beans, picante sauce and cheese.
- Mix.
- I use the soft taco size tortillas; this is a personal preference.
- Place a good amount of filling in the middle of the tortilla shell.
- This is again your preference, whether you like more meat than shell or more shell than meat.
- Did that make sense?
- Fold up the bottom of tortilla.
- Fold over right and left side of tortilla, the fold over top.
- Use toothpicks to secure your folds.
- Remember to take them out after you have fried your chimichanga.
- Fry until golden brown on both sides.
- I usually lean each one on edge to brown them too.
- I also tear up a tortilla in several pieces and fry them to use as chips.
- Drain and top with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, picante sauce, sour cream, etc.
- Again, remember to remove you toothpicks!
- Serve warm.
