Steps

60 minutes
  1. 1

    Heat the oil in a skillet. Sauté the onion with the garlic and red bell pepper. Add and cook for 2 minutes: jalapeños, cumin, chili powder, oregano, and salt. Add the cooked chicken, black beans, and tomato purée or sauce. Stir well and cook until heated through. Let cool.

  2. 2

    Once cooled, mix in the cilantro and green onions. Lay the flour tortillas on the table and divide the filling evenly among the 10 tortillas, spreading it in the center.

  3. 3

    Mix the cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses together and sprinkle over the filling on each tortilla. Use a pastry brush to brush a little beaten egg around the edges of each tortilla.

  7. 7

    Serve the chimichangas with sour cream, pico de gallo, and guacamole.
