Oven-Fried Chimichangas

Tonight was yet another Mexican Dinner Night.  We tried a new recipe that was really good (and not as bad for you as the traditional deep fried version).  


Oven-Fried Chimichangas
2/3 c. salsa
1 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
1 1/2 cup cooked, shredded chicken or 1 (12 oz) can chicken
1 c. shredded cheese
6 (8 inch) flour tortillas
2 T. butter, melted

Mix chicken, salsa, cumin, oregano and cheese.  Place 1/4 cup chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla.  Fold in the ends of the tortilla and then roll it up.  Place seam side down on a baking sheet.  Brush with melted butter.  Bake at 400 deg for 25 minutes or until golden.  Serve with salsa, sour cream and cheese on top, if desired.
