Sposób przygotowania

Krok po kroku

1. 1

   Prepare the pickled red onions: In a small bowl, combine the sliced red onion, white vinegar, water, and salt. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.

   Około 15 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: For a faster pickle, warm the vinegar and water slightly before adding the onion.

2. 2

   Prepare the masa dough: In a medium bowl, combine the masa harina and salt. Gradually add the warm water, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a little more water; if too sticky, add a little more masa harina.

   Około 5 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: The dough should feel like Play-Doh and not stick to your hands.

3. 3

   Form the tortillas: Divide the dough into 8-10 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then press it between two pieces of plastic wrap in a tortilla press or flatten it by hand to about 3-4 inches in diameter and 1/8 inch thick.

   Około 10 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: Keep the remaining dough covered with a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out.

4. 4

   Fry the tortillas: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or shallow pot over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C). Carefully place one or two tortillas into the hot oil. Fry for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly golden and slightly puffed.

   Około 8 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: Do not overcrowd the pan; fry in batches to maintain oil temperature.

5. 5

   Remove the tortillas from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

   Około 2 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: Keep the fried tortillas warm in a low oven if not serving immediately.

6. 6

   Assemble the salbutes: Place a warm fried tortilla on a serving plate. Top generously with shredded chicken breast, then add a spoonful of the pickled red onion.

   Serve immediately and enjoy!
