Chicken Chimi in the Oven
Ingredients
-
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
-
1/2 cup chopped onion
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
2 cups salsa
-
3 tablespoons water
-
1/4 cup chili powder
-
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
-
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
1 pound cooked, shredded chicken breast meat
-
1 cup refried beans
-
6 (10 inch) flour tortillas
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.
-
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large saucepan over
medium heat. Saute onion and garlic in oil until tender. Stir in salsa
and water. Season with chili powder, cumin, and cinnamon. Transfer the
mixture to a blender or food processor, and blend until smooth. Return
mixture to the saucepan, stir in the chicken, and cook until heated
through.
-
Spoon an equal amount of refried beans down center
of each tortilla, and top with equal amounts of the chicken mixture.
Fold tortillas over the filling, and secure with toothpicks. Arrange
seam-side down in the prepared baking dish, and brush with the remaining
olive oil.
-
Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, turning every 5 minutes, until golden brown and crisp.
