Chicken and Cactus Tacos


Are now available throughout the country, or at least at the few restaurants that will be carrying them.

This month’s taco is from Michael Kornick…. His Tacos Nopalitos y Pollo is available at Mercadito locations in Miami, New York, and Chicago until November 30.

If you can’t get over there in time, don’t worry, here’s the recipe.

Ingredients:

Oil to warm on the griddle

1 fresh Nopalitos cactus
2 cups rich chicken stock
Salt and pepper to taste
2 oz. olive oil

Tomatillos

Oil to grill
Salt and pepper

Garnish
½ cup chiffonade cilantro
¼ cup minced red onion

They sure look good.
