Preparation

For the red sauce, heat a deep skillet over medium heat with the oil and cook the garlic with the onion, the guajillo chile and the tomato until they are soft. Fill with the chicken stock, boil and let reduce in half, season with salt, remove from heat and blend until a smooth sauce, strain and reserve.

For the green sauce, heat a pot over medium heat with the water, cook the tomatoes, serrano pepper, white onion, garlic and cilantro until the tomatoes change color. Remove from the water and blend with more cilantro and salt until a smooth sauce is obtained. Heat a pot over medium heat with oil and fry the sauce until it reduces and thickens slightly, season and reserve.

Heat a pan over medium heat with the oil and fry the tortillas lightly, remove and place on absorbent paper to remove excess fat.

Fill the tortillas with the shredded chicken, fold and place them on a plate, bathe in half with the red sauce and the other half with the green, serve with cheese, cream, onion and cilantro. Enjoy
