I used up the rest of the ingredients from my chimichanga, so these are made with honey chipotle chicken thighs, avocado lime crema, and quick-pickled onions and serranos (made with apple cider vinegar)

Everywhere I look I think of her

I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw it.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

I'm not even into that, and I got that from the thumbnail. >_>;

Sweet pale labia's ghost. Those look pretty good.

My dude, fry those tortillas a bit!

Here you go

For real tho. These look great! I’m a sucker for pickled onions.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Pickled onions are the best! Their only problem is that they disappear within seconds.

You're missing hot sauce my friend! Unless the chicken is adequately spiced ;)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

The chicken is marinated in a honey chipotle marinade that was mostly just chipotles, then more of the marinade was added after shredding the chicken. There is an entire half a serrano in each taco, not to mention that the onions were pickled with serranos and are therefore spicy.

Oh, also there's a bunch of (very hot) hot sauce directly on top of the chicken, but below the onions and cilantro.

Glorious, I retract my statement immediately!

Those look great, although I would want at least one more, and I'm not a very big guy.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, I had a couple more after these two were gone

Gotta cook those tortillas

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Do you normally use double tortillas? I feel like one layer is enough for me.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Doubling tortillas is an old school trick for mass quantities. It adds structural stability and minimizes food loss from breaking. We also give em a light grilling or frying before using them too.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

It's also a very common practice in food trucks and street stalls in Southern California. That's where most of my Mexican food influence comes from.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

I love it when they serve 2 per taco. The filing is always more than enough for 1, so I split it across the extra tortilla. Double tacos FTW!

Blech corn tortillas. Flour is objectively better

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

To each their own but I get tired of flour real quick so I'd rather eat corn tortillas.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

To be fair there are a lot of bad corn tortillas, hand made corn tortillas are so much better. Buying them at the grocery takes time to find a decent brand and when you cook them you know they are done when you can fold them and they don't crack.
