Beef Chimichangas

A chimichanga is a popular Southwestern dish that’s almost identical to a burrito, except it's deep-fried. (Here are other Southwest recipes to try!)
Are chimichangas authentic Mexican food?
Many people say that chimichangas are a Mexican-American fusion dish. Chimichangas are based on Mexican burritos but are said to have been invented in Arizona, where a Mexican restaurant owner named Woody Johnson would deep-fry leftover burritos as an experiment.
What goes good with chimichangas?
Chimichangas are best served with guacamole, sour cream and salsa! (Try our Homemade Guacamole and Mexican Homemade Salsa for an entirely home-cooked meal.) You can also add rice and beans on the side.
