Notes
-
Tortillas can vary in size— the smaller they are, the more servings you'll get. You can also choose the type of tortilla based on your taste preferences.
-
The minced meat doesn't have to be chicken; beef works well for this dish.
-
It’s a good idea to spread the minced meat in a thin layer for the best texture. This prevents the tortilla from becoming too tough, keeps it from separating, and ensures the meat cooks evenly.
-
You can prepare the sauce without mayonnaise by using sour cream instead, although the mayo does provide a more distinct flavor.
-
These fried tortillas with minced meat can be prepared and reheated before serving. Add fresh lettuce, grate some cheese, and serve them boldly at a festive table or as a tasty snack.
