Banana Split Chimichangas Food

BANANAS FOSTER CHIMICHANGAS

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter . Stir in bananas and sugar, and stir until sugar is dissolved. Pour in rum and cook 1 to 2 minutes more. Spoon half the banana mixture onto each flour tortilla, and roll up, tucking in the ends, like a burrito.
• In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry chimichangas until golden. Drain on paper towels. Serve warm.

CHICKEN CHIMICHANGAS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a frying pan on a medium heat, add the chicken thigh fillets and fry for 6-8 mins each side until cooked through, then remove from the pan and set aside. Add another tbsp oil to the pan, then the onion and red pepper and cook until softened, about 5 mins.
• Shred or cut chicken into small pieces and put in a bowl with the cooked onions and peppers, chillies, cheese and spices, season and mix well.
• Heat the tortillas briefly in a dry frying pan for a few seconds on each side to make them a little more pliable, or heat in a microwave. Spoon a layer of the beans, if using, into the centre of each tortilla, then spoon some of the chicken mixture on top. Repeat so all the wraps and filling are used up.
• Roll-up the chimichangas - fold the bottom over the filling, fold the sides in, then roll away from you so all the filling is sealed in.
• To bake, heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place the chimichangas on an oiled baking sheet and brush lightly with more oil. Bake until golden, about 20-25 mins. Or to fry them, heat a heavy-based frying pan over a medium heat. Once hot, add the 60ml oil to the pan and place the chimichangas seam-side down. Turn gently every few seconds until lightly golden on all sides and the filling has heated through.
• While they cook, warm the enchilada sauce in a small pan, then spoon some enchilada sauce on a plate, lay the chimichanga on top, and top with soured cream, a little more cheese and some coriander.Nutrition (fried):Kcal 425; fat 24g; saturates 6g; carbs 27g; sugars 5g; fibre 3g; protein 23g; salt 1.85g

THE TRACE BANANA CHIMICHANGAS

Steps:

• Melt butter in sauté pan. Add the sugar, spices, honey and rum. Let simmer over medium heat for five minutes or until it reaches the consistency of maple syrup. Add sliced bananas to the sauce mixture. Cook for 1 ½ minutes more, or until bananas become slightly soft. Remove pan from heat and pour the entire contents through a strainer. Remove bananas from the strainer and put them into the refrigerator to cool. Reserve sauce in another container. After bananas have cooled, mix together the egg and milk in a bowl. Lay out the flour tortillas. Place ¼ of the banana mixture in the center of the tortilla, leaving about ¾-inch around the edge of the tortilla. With a brush or your hand, rub the remaining area of the tortilla with an egg wash. Fold the sides of the tortilla toward the middle. Take the end of the tortilla closest to you and roll over the banana mixture until the tortilla is closed like a burrito. Heat oil in a pan until it reaches 350-375° . Lay the burrito in the hot oil in the pan and fry until golden brown. Remove and place on a towel. Slice diagonally with a serrated knife and serve with the remainder of the sauce and ice cream.
