Chicken Chimichangas Made Skinny is a healthier take on the classic Mexican dish. This recipe involves baking the chimichangas instead of frying them, making it a low-fat option. The filling consists of chicken, onions, salsa, cheese, corn, and a choice of ranch or sour cream, all wrapped in a tortilla and baked to golden perfection. Garnish with skinny ranch dressing or sour cream, shredded lettuce, salsa, chopped tomatoes, and cheese for a delicious and nutritious meal.
