Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 1h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 large skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
3 cups water
1 tablespoon chili powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 (7 ounce) can chopped green chilies, divided
½ cup diced onion
3 large cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup water
1 cube chicken bouillon
½ cup sour cream
salt and pepper to taste
oil for frying
8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
8 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

  • Place the chicken breasts into a large saucepan. Pour in the water, and season with chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, cumin, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Bring to a simmer over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, stir in 4 ounces of green chiles, onion, and garlic; continue simmering until the liquid has reduced to 1 cup. Reserve remaining 3 ounces of chopped green chilies. Remove the chicken, shred with two forks, and return to the onion mixture.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour, and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in the water and bouillon cube until the water has thickened and the bouillon cube has dissolved, about 4 minutes. Whisk in reserved 3 ounces of green chilies and the sour cream; season to taste with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Place a tortilla onto your work surface, then spoon about 1/3 cup of the chicken filling halfway between the bottom edge and the center of the tortilla. Flatten the filling into rectangle shape with the back of a spoon. Sprinkle about 1 ounce of the Monterey Jack cheese over the filling. Fold the bottom of the tortilla snugly over the filling, then fold in the left and right edges. Roll the chimichanga up to the top edge, forming a tight cylinder; secure the ends with wooden toothpicks. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • Cook the chimichangas, 2 at a time, in the hot oil until they are crisp and golden brown on both sides, about 1 minute per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate, and remove toothpicks. Top with sour cream sauce to serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs will work well for this recipe. Make sure the chicken is evenly sized so that it cooks evenly.
  • Use a large skillet: This will help to prevent the chicken from overcrowding. If you don't have a large skillet, you can cook the chicken in batches.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a good quality cream: The cream is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cream. Heavy cream or whipping cream will work well.
  • Add vegetables: If you want to add vegetables to this dish, you can do so at the same time that you add the garlic and shallots. Some good options include mushrooms, zucchini, and carrots.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The sauce will thicken as it cools, so if you wait too long to serve it, the sauce may be too thick.

Conclusion:

This chicken cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It can be served over rice, pasta, or vegetables. The creamy sauce is full of flavor and the chicken is tender and juicy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
