I love a good chimichanga... all that yummy pulled chicken and gooey cheese, lovingly wrapped up in a flour tortilla, fried to perfection, and then covered in a perfect white sauce. So yummy. FYI: I've included recipes for the pulled chicken, and the yummy white sauce. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.
