  • tomato sauce1 cup
  • scallions, chopped3

  • burrito-size flour tortillas8 -10
  • cheddar cheese, shredded and divided4 cups

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Take the meat off the bone of the rotisserie chicken and tear into bite-size pieces.

  2. 2

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

  3. 3

    In a stockpot, place the chicken, chili powder, cabbage, chipotles, tomato sauce, scallions, salt and pepper and 2 cups cheese. Add chicken broth and heat slowly until it all melts.

  4. 4

    When ready to assemble, place a small amount of cheese in the center of a tortilla and top with the desired amount of filling. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and close by overlapping the other two sides. Place seam-side down on a greased baking sheet and repeat until you have used all of the filling. Brush the tops of the chimichangas with oil and bake until deep golden brown, about 15-17 minutes.
