Air Fryer Chicken Chimichangas are stuffed full of Mexican inspired ingredients and crispy after air frying. No need for take out, just take out your air fryer.
In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add chicken, chilies, taco seasoning, water, and lime juice, stirring to coat. Cook 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until chicken is heated through.
Place a tortilla on a work surface, and spread 3 tablespoons of the refried beans in the middle.
Top with about ¼ of the chicken mixture (¾ cup) and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of cheese.
Fold sides of tortilla in. Fold bottom over filling and sides, then roll up tightly. Set aside, seam side down, and repeat with remaining tortillas.
Lightly spray the inside of the air fryer basket with cooking spray, as well as the outside of each filled tortilla. Place 2 chimichangas, seam side down, in the basket, and cook at 400 degrees F for 7-8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until lightly browned and heated through. Repeat cooking with remaining chimichangas.
Serve with sour cream, pico de gallo, and cilantro.
Cook only two at a time, avoid letting the chimichangas touch each other.
Pro Tip: This recipe can be made in the air fryer unit with a basket or the air fryer oven. If you are using the air fryer oven, use the middle rack and select the "Air Fry" function.
