Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Once done, remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Tortas

    In a separate skillet, heat the refried beans over medium heat until warmed through. Slice the avocado and jalapeno. For each tortilla, spread a layer of refried beans, followed by sliced grilled chicken, Oaxaca cheese, avocado slices, jalapeno, shredded lettuce, and a generous drizzle of salsa verde.

  3. 3

    Assemble

    Fold the tortillas over the filling to create a sandwich-like torta. You can grill the assembled tortas on the grill or in a skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until the tortillas are crispy and the cheese is melted.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cut the tortas in half and serve with extra salsa verde on the side. Enjoy your delicious Chicken Torta!
