Chicken Chimichangas

This recipe came from my sister-in-law, Val. When I made it for the first time, I was amazed at how good and restaurant-like they turned out. The best part about them is that they are really easy to make.
Here's what you'll need:
Cooked chicken, diced or shredded
1/4 package chicken taco seasoning
1 can refried beans
grated cheese
flour tortillas
Toppings:
lettuce
tomatoes
olives
salsa
sour cream
guacamole
Season chicken with 1/4 package chicken taco seasoning. On a flour tortilla, spread refried beans in a row, chicken, and top with cheese. Roll up and secure with a toothpick. Fry in a deep fat fryer until golden and crispy. Allow to cool slightly on a paper towel. Don't forget to take out the toothpicks! Repeat until you run out of ingredients. Serve with any or all toppings.


Doesn't that look like something you would order at your favorite Mexican restaurant?!
