- Heat 2 Tbsp. of the canola or possibly extra virgin olive oil in a medium-size skillet or possibly saucepan. Add in the garlic and cumin and cook, stirring, till the oil smells fragrant, about 2 min. Add in the beans and tomatoes and cook till heated through, about 10 min. Using a potato masher, mash the beans. Then stir with a wooden spoon to make a fairly smooth mix. Stir in the chipotle en adobo and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Prepare a medium-low fire on the grill.
- Heat 1 flour tortilla directly over a gas burner or possibly in a dry skillet over medium-high heat, turning to hot both sides. Sprinkle about 1/4 c. of the Monterey Jack in a line across the center of the tortilla. Spread about 1/3 c. c. of the beans on top. Sprinkle with the cilantro. Mix in the sides and roll up the tortilla to enclose the filling. Place on a baking sheet, seam-side down. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Brush the tortillas with the remaining 1 Tbsp. of oil.
- Transfer the tortillas, seam-side down, to the grill, and grill, turning occasionally, till heated through and browned, about 15 to 20 min.
- Serve warm, passing salsa on the side.
- This recipe yields 4 to 8 servings.
- Comments: Traditionally, chimichangas are deep-fried or possibly pan-fried burritos. But there's no need for frying when the heat of the grill can brown the tortilla and give it a lovely crispy texture. A spoonful of chipotle en adobo gives the black beans a special smoky flavor. Chimichangas should be cooked over a low fire. If desired, keep the fire warm for grilling potatoes or possibly corn as an accompaniment, and grill the chimichangas off to the side, away from the intense heat.
