Chicken Chimichangas

by Irene Lindvall


I don't normally have chimichangas when dining at Mexican restaurants but Eric does from time to time so I was excited to make this dish for him. I was even more surprised with the recipe called for baking them instead of deep frying. The recipe went off without a hitch, but I did think it was a little time consuming for the outcome. That said, it still tasted good and I paired it with my guacamole.

Things I learned from this recipe:

Non-deep-fried chimichangas taste like baked soft tacos.

My taco wrapping skills from working Taco Bell 17 years ago really kicked in this evening.

Would I make this recipe again?:

Probably not.
