Delirio Texano chimichangas

This dish literally means "Texan Delirium" but...what is it exactly? get ready for this: smoked salmon chimichangas with avocado and warm garlic sauce. This recipe has the perfect flavor to pair with an Hornitos Plata or Sauza Silver Tequila. If it is nutrition we want to talk about, this dish is perfect, since a salmon with capers has lots of nutrients that balance well with the rest of the dish's ingredients.

This recipe serves 3 people

Preparation time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 200 g smoked salmon
  • 4 flour torillas
  • 1 Tsp chopped capers
  • 1/2 an avocado

Preparation

Cut the salmon in strips, mix with the capers and then distribute this mixture on the tortillas as to make a salmon "burrito". Use wooden toothpicks to hold them tight and fry immediately. Place on paper towel and set aside.

 

Sauce

Remove the garlic's skin and fry for 5 seconds (burnt garlic is no good). Blend the avocado, onion and chicken broth together. Season with salt and chives to taste.

Plating

Cut the chimichangas diagonally. Spread the sauce in the plate and place the chimichangas on top, as if following a lineal pattern, like a stairway.
