Amount Ingredient
SAUCE ----------------
1/2 lb Tomatillos, cooked, drained
3 x Chiles poblanos, peeled, seeds removed
6 x Epazote leaves (orig.="two sprigs epazote, leaves only" (up to 8)
2 tbl Cilantro (orig.="three sprigs coriander, leaves only"
1/3 x Onion, medium, white, roughly chopped
Chiles serranos to taste
Salt to taste
1 cup Chicken stock
----------------- OTHER INGREDIENTS ----------------
Oil, vegetable
12 x Tortillas, corn, each cut into 6 wedges
1 cup Chicken meat, cooked, shredded (optional)
3/4 cup Cheese (4 oz.), queso fresco, jack, white cheddar
2 x Eggs, hard-boiled, diced (optional)
1/2 x Onion, medium, white, finely chopped
Instructions:
Instructions: Blenderize all sauce ingredients, except stock, until smooth. Heat 1 Tbs. oil, then fry sauce 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Add stock and cook one more minute. Set aside.

Heat vegetable oil for deep frying and fry tortilla pieces, about a fourth at a time, until they begin to stiffen, but are not browned; drain well.

Return sauce to heat and bring to a boil; stir in the tortilla pieces and cook over medium heat, scraping up bottom of pan almost constantly, until most of the liquid has been absorbed and tortillas are _just_ beginning to soften - about 5-8 minutes. The tortilla pieces should still be chewy.

Quickly mix in the chicken meat.

Serve immediately, garnished with cheese, hard-boiled eggs, finely chopped onion, and cilantro.
