Chimichangas, deep-fried treats with a fascinating history, rule Arizona's culinary scene.
Monica Flin, the founder chef of El Charro Café, the nation's oldest Mexican restaurant, invented this tasty dish by chance.
Flin allegedly devised the chimichanga in the mid-1950s by dropping a huge burro into the deep fryer.
The chimichanga, with its crispy exterior and contents like shredded beef, beans, and cheese, has become an iconic dish that represents Arizona's diverse cuisine scene.
