This version combines two delights from our favorite taquerias: melted cheese and suadero. The suadero is prepared with a long and short cooking time to achieve that soft texture and all the characteristic flavor of this meat, while the melted cheese with its softness and texture is an ideal complement.
4 serrano chiles, red finely chopped, for the suadero
1 cup cilantro, chopped, for the suadero
salt
1/2 kilos Manchego cheese, grated
green rajas, grilled chili with small onions for decoration and accompaniment
corn tortillas, to accompany

For the suadero, place the suadero in a pot with water, evaporated milk, orange, allspice, cilantro, cloves, onion, garlic, bay leaf, and coarse salt. Cover and cook for 2 hours over medium heat. If necessary, add more water to the suadero to keep it hydrated and prevent it from drying out.
When it is tender, remove from cooking, let cool slightly, and when possible, chop the meat finely.
Heat oil in a Tramontina® skillet over medium heat and fry the onion, serrano chili, suadero, and cilantro for 10 minutes, or until the meat is golden brown; don’t forget to season with a little salt. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same Tramontina® skillet, place a layer of manchego cheese, add a layer of suadero, then another layer of cheese, and so on until the Tramontina® skillet is full; you should finish with a layer of cheese. Cover and heat over low temperature to allow the cheese to melt slowly.
Once melted, uncover and serve in the Tramontina® skillet with the grilled strips and tortillas.
