Description
- Begin by cooking the chicken breast in a pot with onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. You can add a special touch by including bay leaves and cilantro stems in the cooking process.
- Once the chicken breast is well-cooked, shred it and set it aside for later use.
- To prepare the sauce, blend tomatoes, habaneros, onion, garlic, and cilantro stems with cooking water. Add salt to taste.
- Transfer this mixture to a skillet with oil and let it cook over medium heat for a few minutes, allowing the sauce to achieve a delightful consistency.
- While the sauce is cooking, fry the tortillas with a minimal amount of oil until they are golden and slightly crispy. Now, the next step is to fill the tortillas with the shredded chicken and generously cover them with the sauce you prepared.
- When serving, accompany the entomatadas with cream and grated cheese to taste. This final touch will enhance the flavors and add a creamy texture that complements the diverse flavors present in this dish perfectly.
