BAKED CHICKEN CHIMICHANGAS
Oh boy, these baked chicken chimichangas are fantastic! By brushing the tortillas with oil before baking, they crisp up beautifully but with less fat than deep frying. The meat filling is full of flavor. Cooking the meat with the bone and skin on makes the chicken succulent and rich. Muna's green chili sauce is so simple to make...
