INSTRUCTIONS

1
Cook the rice and beans

Add 1 tbsp olive oil and garlic to a large nonstick skillet and cook over medium-high heat until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add rice and cook undisturbed until rice starts to brown and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Add black beans, Alamo chili seasoning, cumin, just 1 tbsp mojo verde, 2 tbsp water, and a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Cook until beans are warmed through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add spinach and cook until wilted, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside. Wipe skillet clean. (4-serving meal: use 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp mojo verde, 4 tbsp water).

2
Build the chimichangas

Return the same skillet to medium-high heat and add tortillas, one at a time, until warm and pliable, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove tortillas from pan, add to a clean work surface, and top each with equal amounts of the rice and bean filling. Roll into burritos, tucking in the sides as you go.

3
Crisp chimichangas

Return the same skillet to medium-high heat with 2 tsp olive oil. Add chimichangas, seam side down, and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. (4-serving meal: use 4 tsp olive oil). TIP: Work in batches for the 4-serving meal.

4
Serve

Add crispy black bean chimichangas to plates and drizzle with remaining mojo verde and hot sauce. Tuck in!
