Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a heavy baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. 2 Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, poblano peppers, and mushrooms; season with salt and black pepper. Cook until soft, about 5 minutes; continue cooking until vegetables begin to brown, 5 to 10 minutes more.
  3. 3 Move vegetables to edges of the skillet, leaving a space in the center. Drizzle 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil into center. Add chicken pieces to the center; season with cumin, ground chipotle, Mexican oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook and stir until chicken pieces are browned, about 5 minutes.
  4. 4 Stir chicken and vegetable mixture together. Off heat, drizzle water over chicken mixture; scrape browned bits of food off the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Transfer mixture to a bowl; set aside to cool. Wipe the skillet clean.
  5. 5 Stir pepper Jack cheese into chicken mixture to combine; season with cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
  6. 6 Heat the same skillet over medium heat until hot. Add 1 tortilla to the skillet; heat until warmed and flexible, about 30 seconds per side.
  7. 7 Place tortilla onto a work surface; spoon 1/4 filling in a line across middle of the tortilla. Fold bottom of tortilla just over filling; brush top and exposed inside parts of tortilla with egg white. Fold right and left sides towards the center like an envelope, enclosing filling. Roll tortilla to enclose filling in a rectangular packet. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
  8. 8 Heat remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add chimichangas; cook on both sides until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
  9. 9 Bake in the preheated oven until tortilla is puffed up, golden brown, and outside is crisp, 12 to 15 minutes. Spoon 1 tablespoon guacamole, 1 tablespoon sour cream, 1 tablespoon salsa, and 1 tablespoon cilantro onto each chimichanga to serve.

Instructions

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
  2. 2 Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place poblano peppers on the foil. Broil in the preheated oven until the skins are blackened and blistered over 80% of the surface, 8 to 10 minutes per side. Remove from the oven and turn the broiler off.
  3. 3 Transfer peppers to a resealable plastic bag. Seal the bag and let peppers steam and cool for about 20 minutes. Remove cooled peppers from the bag; scrape off and discard blackened skin.
  4. 4 Cut a slit lengthwise into the side of each pepper, then remove the seeds and veins. To reduce spiciness, rinse out any remaining seeds with water, then pat dry with paper towels.
  5. 5 Line a baking sheet with parchment or waxed paper. Place 1/2 cup flour into a shallow bowl for dredging.
  6. 6 Mix mozzarella, Monterey Jack, and Cheddar together in a bowl until thoroughly blended. Divide into four equal portions, then lightly squeeze each portion in your hands to make a cone shape. Insert each cone through the slit into a pepper, then pin the openings closed with toothpicks.
  7. 7 Dredge stuffed peppers in flour, then dust off any excess. Place onto the prepared baking sheet and into the freezer for at least 30 minutes while you make the sauce. Keep remaining dredging flour available for Step 10.
  8. 8 To make the sauce, purée stewed tomatoes in a blender and set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds. Pour in puréed tomatoes, chicken broth, vinegar, oregano, cumin, black pepper, hot pepper sauce, and cinnamon. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring often, until sauce is reduced by half and thickened, about 20 minutes. While the sauce is simmering, preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C) and warm a platter in the oven.
  9. 9 To make the batter and finish the chiles rellenos, mix 1/3 cup flour with salt in a bowl. Beat egg whites in a separate bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Lightly mix in egg yolk and flour mixture until a fluffy batter forms.
  10. 10 Remove peppers from the freezer and dredge in flour again. Shake off excess flour, then use a spoon to gently dip each pepper into egg batter until completely coated.
  11. 11 Heat frying oil in a heavy cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in batches, gently place coated peppers into hot oil and fry until batter is golden brown and cheese filling is hot, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer fried peppers to the warmed platter while you finish frying.
  12. 12 To serve, ladle a generous spoonful of sauce onto each plate, then place a pepper in the center.
  13. 13 Serve hot with a dollop of sour cream over top.

  2. 2 Transfer heated egg whites and sugar to a large mixing bowl or stand mixer. Mix at high speed (or as high as you can go without egg whites flying out of the bowl) until they have reached their maximum volume, 5 to 10 minutes. Mix on medium or medium-high speed while pinching off small pieces of butter and throwing them in. Mix in vanilla if using. The buttercream may look like it is breaking down, but keep on mixing and it will come back together.
