Medium

Knead the corn dough with a little water if necessary. Heat a griddle over medium heat on the stove. Take a small ball of dough and place it between two sheets of plastic, slightly flatten it, and cook on the griddle for 3 minutes on each side, making sure they don’t burn. Remove them from the griddle and pinch the edges immediately to shape them. Fry the garlic in hot oil for 1 minute, add the chicken and chipotle, cook for 3 more minutes, and season. Mix in a bowl, the tomato with the onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Heat a little oil in a large skillet and fry the pinched tortillas until lightly golden. Place on paper towels to remove excess grease. Garnish with the chicken, pico de gallo, cream, and panela cheese.
