Beef and Cheese Chimichanga

Instructions

1. In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in the beans, onion, 1/2 cup tomato sauce, chili powder, garlic, and cumin.
2. Spoon about 1/3 cup of the beef mixture off-center on each tortilla. Fold the edge nearest filling up and over to cover. Fold in both sides and roll up. Fasten with toothpicks.
3. In a large saucepan, combine the green chilies, jalapeño peppers, and remaining tomato sauce; heat through.
4. In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat 1 inch of oil to 375°F. Fry the chimichangas for 1-1/2 to 2 minutes on each side or until browned. Drain on paper towels.
5. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and serve with the heated sauce.
