Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. Season them with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Bread the Chicken

    Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with bread crumbs. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip in egg, and then coat with bread crumbs.

  3. 3

    Fry the Chicken

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the breaded chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove from skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Torta

    Slice the avocado and set aside. Spread cremayo on one side of a toasted bread roll. Layer with black beans, fried chicken, queso fresco, avocado slices, and pickled jalapeños.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Close the torta and serve immediately with additional pickled jalapeños on the side if desired.
