Mexican cuisine: difference between green enchiladas, chilaquiles with chicken and flautas with chicken

I will not talk about how to prepare these dishes, the interesting thing is that the same ingredients are used for each of these, what varies is its presentation.

Ingredients for 5 servings:

• 1/2 kilo of chicken breast
• 1 piece of striped fresh cheese
• 16 pieces of tortilla
• vegetable oils
• 1/4 cup of sour cream

Ingredients for green sauce

• 1 small piece of onion to flavor
• 2 pieces of serrano chili
• 7 pieces of green tomato
• 1 clove garlic
• 1 branch of disinfected cilantro
• 1 pinch of salt

The whole difference is in the preparation and presentation of the corn tortilla 😳. As you are reading it.

For green enchiladas or also called enchiladas suizas, the corn tortilla is fried but leaving it with a soft texture, for taco. It is filled with chicken, the amount of sauce is added as you like, cheese and cream is added as you like as well .

For the green chilaquiles, the corn tortilla is cut first into four parts, fried, leaving the corn tortilla with a hard texture, like crunchy, they are also called tortilla chips. Put a layer of tortilla chips, put sauce as you like, the amount of chicken you want, sprinkle cheese and cream as you like as well. A lot of people like to add any style of eggs...

For the flautas with chicken, first make chicken roll with the corn tortilla, join with chopsticks so that it does not open and fry in oil until the tortilla is crispy but filled with chicken. Sauce, cheese and cream are added as you like. Some people like to add lettuce and tomato cubes, maybe to feel they are on a diet haha.

So the next time you visit a Mexican restaurant, you will know the difference between these three dishes
Do not miss Mexican food it is delicious and very colorful.
