Ingredients

6 servings

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 0.5 cup diced onion
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 0.5 (8 ounce) package Neufchatel cheese, softened
  • 1 (4 ounce) can hot fire-roasted diced green chiles (such as Ortega®)
  • 0.25 cup chicken broth
  • 1.5 tablespoons chicken taco seasoning mix (such as McCormick®)
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 6 (10 inch) flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend, or to taste
  • avocado oil cooking spray

Instructions

  • Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.
  • Heat oil in a medium skillet. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, 4 to 6 minutes. Add chicken, Neufchâtel cheese, green chiles, chicken broth, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until mixture is well combined and Neufchâtel has been evenly incorporated.
  • Heat tortillas in a large skillet or directly on the grates of a gas stove until soft and pliable. Place 1/3 cup chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla and top with a heaping tablespoon of Mexican cheese. Fold the top and bottom of tortillas over the filling, then roll each into a burrito shape. Mist with cooking spray and place in the basket of an air fryer.
  • Air-fry for 4 to 6 minutes. Flip each chimichanga over, mist with cooking spray, and air-fry until lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes more.
