These were pretty good. I don't think I have ever had an authentic chicken chimichanga before so I don't have anything to compare them to. Also, I made a lot of alterations. I put a little garlic and onion powder on the chicken before I grilled it on my George Forman grill and then shredded it per the recipe. I did cut the chili powder in about a third and increased the cumin by just a pinch or two. I omitted the cinnamon as I didn't have any on hand. Also, I added a few TBS of cream cheese to the chicken mixture. I did not put it in the food processor either and it was fine. I spread the beans down center of tortilla as directed; topped with chicken mixture and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese. I folded the tortillas up wrap style by first folding top and botton edges and then folding the sides around them. brushed lightly with EVOO put seam side down in a baking dish. There was no need for toothpicks. I only turned them once half way through and they stayed together fine. All that said, and the filling a little different than the recipe states... good recipe. Will make again! Thank you for the recipe.
