Chimichanga is a meat-filled deep-fried burrito, that originated in Tucson, Arizona. According to a legend, Monica Flin, who started the restaurant El Charro in 1922, accidentally dropped a burrito into the deep fat fryer. She immediately began to utter a Spanish curse-word, but quickly edited herself to say “Chimichanga” the Spanish equivalent of “thingamajig.”
The old fashioned way pan fried pork chops. It only takes you about 6 min to cook these chops
I don’t know about you but I don’t like the taste of “raw” tortillas. So I brown mine in the skillet for a minute. 😉
This is one of those recipes you make every time with Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. At least it is at my house.
I found this recipe as a copy of T.G.I Friday Spicy Cajun Pasta. I made a few changes to it. Instead of adding garlic I added pesto and couldn’t resist to add some Alfredo Sauce. If you want to lower the calories use whole wheat fettuccine noodles and leave the Alfredo Sauce out.
