Green Chicken Chalupas with Salsa Verde

written by Lala Castro November 14, 2017
Green Chicken Chalupas with Salsa Verde

Chalupas is a famous snack in Mexico, especially in Puebla, where you can find them everywhere from street stands to restaurants.  They’re really easy to make and it’s a perfect way to use leftover meat.  So I looked into it and prepared an easy to make Green Chicken Chalupas at home that I plan to serve at our Day of the Dead family dinner.  What I like about this recipe is that it doesn’t require you to make everything from scratch, you can use Herdez Salsa and still keep its authentic flavor.  Of course, if you like your salsa spicier, you can always blend the salsa with an extra serrano or jalapeno to give it that extra kick.  This may be a tradition that we look forward to celebrating every year with the family.  The recipe is not only easy to make, but it only requires five ingredients and it’s perfect as an appetizer or snack. Hope you enjoy it!
