Easy
  • For the tlacoyos: In a bowl, mix masa dough, vegetable shortening, salt, and water and knead until incorporated. Set aside.
  • For the chicharron prensado: In a blender, combine guajillo chile, onion, garlic, salt, and a dash of water (it can be chile soaking water) and blend for 2 minutes.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, heat vegetable shortening and add pressed pork rinds and previously blended sauce. Cook for 8 minutes or until reduced by 80%.
  • For the green sauce: In a blender, combine tomatillo, serrano chile, onion, garlic, cilantro, cumin, salt, pepper, and a dash of water and blend for 3 minutes.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, heat vegetable oil and fry green sauce for 8 minutes or until it turns color and is semi-thick.
  • For assembling the chicharrón prensado tlacoyos: Using your hands, form a masa dough ball, shape it like an oval, and hollow out with your fingers. Stuff with one tablespoon of chicharrón prensado and seal masa dough tightly around the stuffing. Flatten the tlacoyo either with your hands or with a tortilla press.
  • Spoon green sauce over a plate, place tlacoyos on top, and spoon more green sauce over. Garnish chicharrón prensado tlacoyos dunked in green sauce with cream, cheese, and cilantro.
