Bj'S Chicken Chimichangas
- 2 pounds cooked skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers (such as RO*TEL(R))
- 3 (4.5 ounce) cans chopped green chile peppers
- 2/3 cup sesame oil
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 3 tablespoons minced chipotle chile peppers
- 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 10 large flour tortillas
- 1 (16 ounce) package shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- Combine chicken, diced tomatoes with green chile peppers, chopped green chile peppers, sesame oil, sugar, chipotle chile peppers, garlic, and salt in a bowl. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and marinate chicken in the refrigerator, 1 hour to overnight. Drain chicken in a colander.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook 1 tortilla in the hot oil for 5 seconds; flip tortilla and cook for 5 seconds more. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- Spoon about 1/2 cup chicken mixture onto each tortilla. Sprinkle Monterey Jack cheese over filling. Spoon filling in a line down the middle of a tortilla. Fold opposing edges of the tortilla to overlap the filling. Roll 1 of the opposing edges around the filling.
- Place each chimichanga, seam-side down, in the hot oil of the same skillet until browned, about 3 minutes per side.
