Preparation

Medium

Boil the chiles, green tomato or tomatillo, onion, and garlic in some chicken broth after briefly roasting them on a comal to enhance their flavor. Blend everything with a little salt so that there is no need to strain it. Shred the chicken and crumble the cheese. In enough oil, fry the tortillas in not-too-small pieces and drain them on paper towels. Pour the blended mixture into a large saucepan with a little of the oil used to fry the tortillas; once it starts to boil, adjust the salt or chicken broth, then add the fried tortillas and turn off the heat to soften the tortillas. Serve with the shredded chicken and crumbled cheese. Enjoy your meal!

Tips

Serve as soon as the tortillas are soft (5 minutes) to keep them warm. You can add onion slices to taste, optional. This tastes better with a cold beer on the side. Cheers!
