Baked Beef Chimichangas
These crispy baked beef chimichangas come together with juicy meat and creamy refried beans. They're quick and easy to make, flavorful, and freezer friendly! Baking chimichangas in the oven is a healthier alternative to deep frying, with less oil and grease splatter.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Warm olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until brown, breaking apart into small pieces.
- Step 2
Add diced onion to the skillet and cook until soft and translucent. Stir in chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, cumin, dried oregano, and salt. Taste and adjust seasoning, needed. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Step 3
Preheat oven to 425F. Make rolling the tortillas easier by warming them over a hot comal, skillet, or in the microwave.
- Step 4
To assemble chimichangas, spread an even amount of refried beans over each tortilla. Spoon an even amount of the seasoned ground beef mixture to each.
- Step 5
Roll up the tortillas and place seam side down in a greased baking dish. Coat chimichangas with cooking spray and bake for about 15-20 minutes. Chimichangas are done when crispy and golden brown!
- Step 6
Serve with salsa, sliced avocado, chopped tomato, diced red onion, or your favorite toppings.
