Chicken Goop Recipe
Chicken pupusas are a traditional Salvadoran dish that consists of a thick corn tortilla filled with a savory chicken filling. These delicious pupusas are perfect as a main course or as a snack. The prep time for this recipe is 20 minutes and the cook time is 30 minutes.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups masa harina (corn flour)
- 1 1/2 cups warm water
- 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Vegetable oil, for cooking
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, combine the masa harina and warm water. Mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add more water, a tablespoon at a time.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the cooked chicken, mozzarella cheese, onion, cilantro, cumin, salt, and black pepper.
- Take a golf ball-sized portion of the dough and flatten it into a circle with your hands. Place a spoonful of the chicken filling in the center of the dough.
- Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, sealing it completely. Gently flatten the pupusa with your hands to form a thick tortilla.
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil.
- Cook the pupusas for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve the chicken pupusas hot with your favorite salsa or tomato sauce.
