4 El Monterey Chicken Cheese Chimichangas
4 cups
Quick Instant Mexican Rice (hot and cooked)
1/2 cup Olive oil
To Taste Salt, Black Pepper, & Granulated Garlic
2 Portobello mushrooms whole and de-stemmed
4 large Squash (zucchini & yellow) lengthwise sliced in half
1 large Red onion 1/4” thick sliced rounds
4 Bell peppers (red & green) stemmed and cored cut into 1/4” thick rings
12 Spears of asparagus
3 large Beefsteak tomatoes sliced 1/4” thick

- Follow pre heating and operating instructions for your indoor grill press.
- Completely thaw out the Chimichangas before cooking them. Place Chimichangas on grill and cook for 5-10 minutes. Turn
Chimichangas over after two minutes and finish cooking. Internal temperature must reach 160ºF before serving. Place Chimichangas in a warm oven to hold.
- On a large platter mound and spread
evenly the prepared Mexican Rice. Hold in a 150ºF oven. Put cooked Chimichangas in the center of the platter over the rice.
- Liberally brush all cut vegetables with olive oil and season to
taste.
- Grill each vegetable together and until done to desired doneness. Some vegetables may take longer than others. Wipe the grill down after each vegetable is cooked.
- As each vegetable is cooked,
arrange on the platter.
- Serve as soon as all the vegetables are cooked.

- Try grilling other El Monterey products such as: Burritos, Corn or Flour Taquitos, Cruncheros, and Tamales (take the plastic off tamale before cooking and leave the husk on for different masa flavor and texture).
- Try your own choice of seasoning mixes or rubs you’ll find on the spice shelf at your store such as: Jamaican Jerk, Cajun, and Spicy Southwestern.
- Serve your grilled platter with your favorite salsas, guacamole, sour cream, or even with mixed salad greens and your favorite dressing.
