My first time making a chimichanga

The filling is honey chipotle marinaded chicken thighs with reaper-jack cheese. Topped with cilantro, onion, and a homemade avocado lime crema

I haven't had a chimichanga in so long that I forgot it was a thing.

We urgently need to see a cross-section.

It disappeared before I thought to get one 😥

Here's the chicken before it got shredded though:

Chimi-chungus

Come on, it's a beautiful night for a walk on the beach, wouldn't you say?
Yes, I would say that, I would say that.

Let me start of with a basket of chips.
Then move on to the pollo assado taco.
I would like two pollo assado tacos with one beef chimichanga. 
On the chimichanga, I would like a side of sour cream.
I would like tomatoes and onions on my casadia.

Are you having a stronk?

I'm not sure the bed of chips is needed, seeing as it's practically a chip cylinder already haha, but man that looks good. Tasteful toppings too. I want three.

I was using fresh oil in my deep fryer, so I fried a quartered corn tortilla to season the oil and get a good color on the chimichanga (I forgot to keep a small amount of the old oil like your supposed to). You're right though, they weren't necessary. Thanks for the compliment 🙂

"First, they take away the tacos, then the chimichangas, which is a beautiful word!"
