Chicken
Sopes
- 1 pound boneless, skinless
chicken breast meat
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
1 large clove garlic, finely chopped
1 large tomato, chopped
1 jalapeño, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons MAGGI Granulated Chicken Flavor Tomato Bouillon
2 cups corn tortilla mix
1 1/3 cups hot water
Vegetable oil for deep frying
1 (16-ounce) can refried beans, warmed
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, finely shredded
1 cup (4 ounces) grated queso fresco
Salsa (optional)
- Place chicken in medium
saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low;
cover. Cook for 30 minutes or until chicken is tender. Set chicken
aside to cool. Drain and save cooking liquid.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil
in saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell pepper and
garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes or until
tender. Shred chicken and return to saucepan. Stir in tomato,
1/4 cup cooking liquid, jalapeño and bouillon. Cover;
cook for 10 minutes or until most of liquid is absorbed.
- Place tortilla mix in
large bowl. Stir in water to make a soft, pliable dough, adding
more water if necessary. Shape into 16 to 18 (1 1/4-inch) balls,
keeping covered. Press each ball into a 3 1/2-inch diameter circle
between pieces of plastic wrap.
- Heat large skillet or
griddle to medium-high heat. Brush lightly with oil. Cook tortillas
for 10 seconds on each side. Immediately pinch edges up to form
a rim.
- Heat oil for deep frying
to 365°F (185°C). Just before serving, fry each sope
base for about 30 seconds or until light golden brown. Drain
on paper towels. Fill each sope with 1 tablespoon refried beans,
1 rounded tablespoon chicken filling, lettuce, queso fresco and
salsa.
Makes 16 to 18 sopes.
