Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Sparkling rosé are great choices for Chimichanga. Acidic white wines like riesling or low-tannin reds like pinot noir can work well with Mexican dishes. Sparkling rosé is a safe pairing too. The Adelsheim Pinot Noir (half-bottle) with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 20 dollars per bottle.

Adelsheim Pinot Noir (half-bottle)

With its broad array of origins and clones, this wine displays red aromas pf candied cherry, pomegranate and raspberry on the nose and the palate. In addition, one finds a light touch of brown spices likw nutmeg, cinnamon, all-spice. True to our house style, it is elegantly textured with seamlessly integrated, silky, polishedtannins. Pair it with salmon, ahi, veal, pork, poultry (think duck), beefor hearty vegetarian entrees.

Instructions

  1. Mix all chimichanga ingredients (minus oil and tortillas). Spoon 2-3 heaping tablespoons of the mixture onto the middle of each tortilla. Fold up tortillas, burrito-style, so the ends of the burrito are tucked into the rolled tortilla. Secure each chimi with several toothpicks. Refrigerate for a couple hoursthis will help ensure the chimis maintain their form during frying.
  2. Meanwhile, make the mascarpone cream. Whip the whipping cream and sugar in a stand mixer or with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form. Add vanilla and cinnamon. Beat in marscarpone cream and whip until the mixture is stiff again. Cover and refrigerate.
  3. Mix cinnamon and sugar and set aside. Youll use this to coat the chimis immediately after frying.
  4. When ready to fry the chimis, heat several inches of oil (enough to cover the chimis completely) in a large pot over medium-high heat to between 360 and 375 degrees. Lower chimis in (two or three at a time) with a slotted spoon (toothpicks still inside) and fry until golden brown (about 3 minutes). Remove from oil with slotted spoon and place on a paper towel. Carefully remove toothpicks and immediately coat chimis in cinnamon sugar mixture.
  5. Serve immediately with a side of mascarpone cream cheese.
