Ingredients

Directions

Step #1 Preheat oven to 400F degrees.
Step #2 In a large bowl, mix turkey & chili powder (and other seasonings, if using).
Step #3 Add cabbage, chipotles, tomato sauce, & scallions.
Step #4 Toss filling to mix well.
Step #5 Spice up with salt & pepper to taste.
Step #6 Place tortillas in a kitchen towel & place this in microwave.
Step #7 Microwave 1 min on high.
Step #8 To build the chimichangas, place one of the tortillas on a flat surface.
Step #9 Sprinkle top 2 tbsps cheese near one edge of the tortilla.
Step #10 Pile 1/4 of the filling on top.
Step #11 Tuck sides up & roll tightly.
Step #12 Repeat with remaining tortillas, cheese, & filling.
Step #13 Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil wrap (DO NOT do this if you are using a toaster oven.
Step #14 Apparently foil wrap can wreck the oven).
Step #15 Brush a thin layer of oil over the foil wrap (If using a toaster oven, brush the oil directly on the baking tray).
Step #16 Place chimichangas on prepared sheet.
Step #17 Brush lightly, but completely, with oil.
Step #18 Bake until wraps are deeply golden, about 15-17 mins.
Step #19 Serve with sour cream, & salsa, cilantro, tomatoes, if desired.
