Sweet Pork Chimichangas
- 10 flour tortillas
- 2 Tbls. extra virgin olive oil
- 1 box beef flavor Rice-A-Roni
- 3 cups shredded cheese (approximately)
- 1 tomato, diced
- 1 bunch cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 1/2 lb. cooked and seasoned meat ( I used sweet pork but you can also use ground hamburger, shredded chicken, shredded beef or steak)
1. Cook Rice-A-Roni according to package directions and leave in skillet until you are ready to fill your tortillas
2. Heat tortillas in microwave until they are soft and warm (approx. 1 to 1 1/2 minutes)
3. Fill each tortilla down the center with rice, meat and shredded cheese (fill with as much cheese as you want)
4. Roll the tortilla into a burrito. Fold the tortilla in half, then fold the ends of the tortilla over. While holding the ends of the tortilla roll it over.
5. Place each chimichanga on a cookie sheet. Dip a basting brush in the extra virgin olive oil and lightly coat the tops of the chimichangas with the oil.
6. Place the cookie sheet in the oven, on the middle rack on Lo broil for approximately 5 minutes or until the tops are golden brown (keep an eye on them as every oven is different and you don't want them to burn)
7. Top with chopped tomatoes and cilantro and your choice of other toppings. I used sour cream, lettuce and taco sauce.
ENJOY!
