Essentially a deep-fried burrito, a chimichanga is a Tex-Mex classic and is such an indulgent treat! A great way to use up leftover chicken, we’ve baked this dish in the oven to keep it slimming friendly without compromising on the delicious flavours. Serve with the refreshing pico de gallo and a dollop of Greek yoghurt – delish!

Hints & Tips

Below we added some of our communities most common hints and tips. We hope you find them useful.

Cooked in the Ninja Speedi, instead of the oven, 4 minutes at 190°c then turned over for another 4 minutes
Served with a side of Mexican rice.
Instructions easy to follow and dish is easy to prepare
I used mini gluten free tortillas and the recipe made 8 servings. I served with a side salad but there are so many other options. There are still tasty the next day.
Alternative to chicken
As an alternative to chicken use minced beef. I also added extra chilli powder and chilli flakes as we love spicy food.

    Hey JJ, You need to swap the tortilla wraps for a gluten free version and use Henderson’s relish instead of Worcestershire sauce, Hope that helps!
