Low
- Cook the potato and carrot for 10 minutes or until soft in a pot with enough salted hot water. Drain and set aside until use.
- For the sauce: Soak the guajillo chili in hot water for 3 minutes. Once soft, blend with the chili water, onion, garlic, oregano, and enough salt until you obtain a semi-liquid sauce. Set aside until use.
- For the filling: Mix the aged cheese with the onion in a bowl. Set aside.
- Brown the cooked chicken pieces in a pot with enough hot vegetable oil and season with a little salt. Once the chicken is browned to your liking, remove from heat and set aside. Keep warm until use.
- Use the same oil to brown the cooked potatoes and carrots, then pour a bit of the guajillo sauce to add color to the vegetables. If necessary, season with a little salt. Remove from heat once the vegetables are cooked.
- Dip the cold tortillas in the guajillo sauce, browning on both sides using the previous oil. Fill with the aged cheese and set aside.
- Place 3 lettuce leaves on a plate and serve the cheese-stuffed enchiladas on top. Accompany with chopped cabbage, cheese, and onion, then serve one piece of chicken per portion along with the cooked vegetables. Done!
