SOUTH-O-THE-BORDER ESSENTIALS:CHICKEN CHIMICHANGAS
I love a good chimichanga... all that yummy pulled chicken and gooey cheese, lovingly wrapped up in a flour tortilla, fried to perfection, and then covered in a perfect white sauce. So yummy. FYI: I've included recipes for the pulled chicken, and the yummy white sauce. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

- Add the onion, lower heat, and let onions sweat without browning, stirring occasionally for approximately 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic, coriander, cumin, oregano, paprika, chili powder, and chipotle chile. Turn the heat up to medium-high, and stir until fragrant.
- Add the chicken pieces, flesh side down, and the tomatoes. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce to a simmer, cover partially, and cook for 90 minutes. The meat should start to pull away from the bone of the drumsticks.

CHICKEN - SOUTH OF THE BORDER
I found this recipe in an issue of Good Housekeeping back in the early 80's,when Southwestern/Mexican recipes were hard to come by - at least here in Wisconsin . It's like a Southwestern version of Chicken Parmesan. I used to use Pace Picante on it, but you can adjust it with any salsa or heat level you prefer. I also added the green chiles because I love them! Also would accompany this chicken with home-made Mexican rice, and a picante-based vegetable "stew."
