Baked Chicken Chimichangas with Green Sauce Recipe




I found this recipe off of a website http://www.sixsistersstuff.com. And it is amazing!!!!!!

Baked Chicken Chimichangas with Green Sauce Recipe:

  • 2 (10.5 ounce) cans condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 2 (4 ounce) cans diced green chiles
  • 5 pitted green olives
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
  • 1 (8 ounce) package shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning
  • 1 pound shredded cooked chicken meat
  • 8 (10 inch) flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 (8 ounce) package shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup chopped green onion
  • 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream

Directions:

-Pour the cream of chicken soup into a blender along with the green chiles, olives, jalapeno, and lime juice. Puree until smooth, then pour into a saucepan, and warm over medium-low heat while proceeding with the recipe.

-In a large bowl, stir together the cream cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and taco seasoning until well blended. Fold in the chicken (optional- season chicken with garlic and salt). Evenly divide mixture among the 8 tortillas (I actually only made 7). Fold each tortilla into a rectangular packet around the filling.
  
-Place all chimichangas in a 9x13 glass pan, sprayed with non-stick spray. Brush all sides of each chimichanga with a small amount of olive oil. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes, pull pan out and turn over each chimichanga. Bake for 15 minutes more. 
-To serve, place a chimichanga on a plate, and ladle the warm sauce overtop. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese and green onions. Finish with a dollop of sour cream.
