Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Brown the ground beef, onion, garlic, taco seasoning, and oregano in a skillet over medium heat, breaking the meat up into crumbles as it cooks, about 8 minutes. Drain off excess fat. Stir in sour cream, chilies, and vinegar until well mixed. Remove from heat, and mix in the Cheddar cheese.
- Melt margarine in a small skillet over low heat. When melted, dip each tortilla into the margarine for about 30 seconds, or until soft. Place the softened tortilla onto a baking sheet, and fill with about 1/3 cup of the meat mixture. Fold the right and left sides of the tortilla over the filling, then the top and bottom, making an envelope that completely encloses the filling. Flip the tortilla seam side down on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the tortilla is crisp, about 15 minutes.

BAKED BEEF CHIMICHANGAS
Perfect for a crowd! We just loved this baked take on our Mexican restaurant faves. The meat is fall-apart tender. Mixing chilis and cilantro with the meat adds a lot of flavor. Brushing the chimichangas with a bit of oil makes the tortillas very crispy out of the oven. It's the taste of being fried, but it's baked with fewer...

Steps:
- 1. Heat skillet on stovetop on high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
- 2. Place roast in pan.
- 3. Sear on both sides.
- 4. Place in slow cooker on high heat.
- 5. Slice onion and place on top of roast with garlic, the two packets of fajita seasoning and 1/2 cup water. Let cook for 4 hours or until you can shred the beef with a fork.
- 6. At that point, shred the beef. I find using two forks work the best.
- 7. Add the green chili and the chopped cilantro to a bowl.
- 8. Mix together with the beef.
- 9. Preheat oven to 400. Heat refried beans on the stove until they are heated and creamy and easily spreadable.
- 10. Warm soft taco shells in the microwave (about 30 sec, just until warm so the can be rolled).
- 11. Spray baking sheets with cooking spray.
- 12. Assemble chimis by spreading beans, cheese, beef mixture on tortilla shells then fold.
- 13. I fold them by folding the shell by a third.
- 14. Tuck in the sides.
- 15. Then folding them the rest of the way over. Eyeball how much of each to put on one shell, depending on how big your shells are.
- 16. Place on baking sheet seam side down. Using a pastry brush, brush the finished chimis with vegetable oil if you are using that or spray them with cooking spray if that is what you are using.
- 17. Place them in oven for about 15 minutes. Keep an eye on the bottom of the chimis. You don't want them to burn (depends on what kind of baking sheet you are using).
- 18. Take the chimis out of oven. Turn on the oven broiler. Top chimis with cheese.
- 19. Place them under the broiler for 2-5 minutes until cheese is bubbly. (Keep a close watch!! You don't want them to burn!)

Usually deep fried, chimichangas can also be oven-fried with less mess, fuss, and fat. Use the filling in burritos as well. You may also deep fry, if desired.

OVEN-FRIED BEEF CHIMICHANGAS
A good, simple alternative to deep-frying. I think I got this from OAM Cookbook years ago. Make sure the tortillas are room temperature or they will crack when you roll them. You can microwave the whole package for about 20 seconds to speed things up.

ALMOST-FAMOUS CHIMICHANGAS
It has happened to all of us: A restaurant closes and just like that, a favorite dish is gone forever. For thousands of fans of the Tex-Mex chain Chi-Chi's, which shuttered its last 65 restaurants in 2004, that dish was the chimichanga: a big tortilla stuffed with beef, seafood or chicken, lettuce, jack cheese and salsa, and topped with a secret "zesty Mexi-sauce." We've seen endless message- board posts from fans pondering the recipe and reminiscing about that unforgettable topping. Now they can taste it again: Chefs in Food Network Kitchens re-created the old favorite from memory.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Melt the butter with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a skillet; transfer to a bowl. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in the skillet. Add the onion, garlic and jalapeno and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the chili powder, cumin, cinnamon and 1 teaspoon salt; toast 30 seconds. Add the tomato and cilantro and cook until slightly dry, about 2 minutes. Stir in the chicken and sour cream and warm through. Remove from the heat.
- Brush a rimmed baking sheet with some of the butter-oil mixture. Spread 2 tablespoons refried beans down the center of each tortilla, leaving a 2-inch border on both ends. Top with 1 cup chicken mixture and 1/4 cup cheese. Fold in the ends and roll up.
- Put the chimichangas seam-side down on the baking sheet; brush with the butter-oil mixture. Bake 8 to 10 minutes per side, brushing again after you flip. Top with the sauce, more cheese, lettuce and tomato. Serve with rice and the remaining beans.
- Saute onions and garlic cloves in a skillet with vegetable oil. Add a pinch each of chili powder, cumin, sugar and salt; cook 30 seconds. Stir in green chiles; cook 2 minutes. Add chicken broth and simmer until thickened, then puree. Stir in cilantro.
BAKED BAJA BEEF CHIMICHANGAS
This is an authentic 40 year-old recipe, and the filling will not taste the same as fast food style chimichangas. The only thing Americanized here is that the chimichangas are baked instead of fried. Caution: If you use leanest ground beef, the filling will seem dry. Serve lots of lettuce, tomatoes and other garnishes listed below with each chimichanga - they are important to this dish's all around flavors and textures.
