Ingredients

1 pound thickly sliced smoked turkey from deli counter, chopped
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 cups shredded slaw cabbage, available in produce department
1 to 2 chipotles in adobo sauce, available with Mexican and Spanish foods in market -- use 1 for moderate heat, 2 for extra hot chimichangas
1 cup tomato sauce
3 scallions, chopped
Salt and pepper
4 (12-inch) flour tortillas
1 1/2 cups, 6 ounces, shredded sharp cheddar, smoked white cheddar or Pepper Jack cheese
2 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves or flat-leaf parsley
1 vine ripe orange or yellow tomato, seeded and finely chopped

Directions

Preheat your toaster oven to 400 degrees F or high.

Place turkey in a bowl and season with chili powder. Add shredded cabbage, chipotles in adobo, tomato sauce, scallions. Toss filling to combine and season with salt and pepper. Place tortillas in a kitchen towel and set in microwave. Microwave on high for 1 minute. To build, place a generous handful of cheese near one edge of the tortilla. Pile 1/4 of your filling in the tortilla. Tuck sides up and roll tortilla tightly. Repeat to make 4 large stuffed tortilla wraps. Brush the toaster oven baking tray with vegetable or olive oil. Brush the wraps with oil and bake until deep golden all over, 15 to 17 minutes. Top with sour cream, cilantro or parsley and chopped orange or yellow tomato, as garnishes.

We loved these!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

The only thing I did differently was to skip the cabbage inside the chimi, but I served them with creamy cole slaw on top. ... The combination was excellent.Read more

We love these!

This is a great, healthier alternative to the regular chimichangas. I use chicken, however, instead of turkey.

Surprisingly great!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I found this recipe as one to clean out the fridge. It sounded borderline at best, but got good reviews, so I gave it a shot.... I even apologized to my husband in advance for the weird dinner I was about to make. I made a few changes, based on what I had in the kitchen. I used red onion instead of scallions, 8" tortillas (secured them with toothpicks), and avocado slices for sour cream. I incorporated cilantro into the filling mixture and used two chiles (seeds wiped away). It was amazing - such a wonderful surprise! LOVED IT LOVED IT LOVED IT. My husband went back for thirds.Read more

Delicious, Quick & Easy
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I live in Texas where we have an abundance of places that make great Chimis, so I was skeprical. I mean, cabbage in a... Chimichanga? These Chimis are so quick, easy to make and good tasting we make them all the time, and if I didn't know there was cabbage in there (and people I've made them for couldn't tell) I'd never have known.Read more

A must try!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is my first review. but I had to say, this recipe is fantastic! My husband deep fries and smokes turkeys for the... holidays, so I was looking for ways to use smoked turkey. I made a double batch and the firat night we pigged out, and the second night my husband went straight for the leftovers when he walked in the house after work! Thanks!Read more
