I love this Latin dish and the simpleness of the recipe. The flavors are tasty and slopping a tortilla into it is delicious. This is a dish that most countries have some form of it’s own version. I would love to try all the different ways to make this! Yum
Taste as you go! Don’t be afraid to add more seasonings or more pepper. You want the flavors to become deep and yummy. This dish is also good topped over rice or on the side.
