In a large bowl, combine chicken, cheese, salsa, green chilies, cumin, oregano and chili powder.Season with salt and pepper.

Lay a tortilla flat, place some of the chicken mixture in the middle, fold in the sides and roll up tightly to cover the filling.

Place chimichangas seam side down on a greased baking sheet so that they bake evenly.

Brush the top with olive oil or spray with cooking spray and then bake until golden brown, 25-30 minutes.
