Pickled onions
1/2 cup
Avocado

Instructions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Fry the corn tortillas one at a time until golden and crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan. Use a slotted spoon to remove the tortillas, draining them on paper towels.
  3. In a bowl, season the shredded chicken with salt. Feel free to add other seasonings like cumin or chili powder for extra flavor.
  4. Assemble the Salbutes by placing a fried tortilla on a plate. Layer the shredded chicken, lettuce, tomato, avocado slices, pickled onions, and sprinkle with chopped cilantro.
  5. Serve the Salbutes with lime wedges on the side. Encourage your guests to squeeze lime juice over the Salbutes to enhance the flavor.
  6. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and toppings.
  7. Enjoy your homemade, flavorful Salbutes! Best served immediately for optimum crunchiness.
