Preparation:

    Step 1
  • Prepare the marinade: In a medium bowl, combine lime juice, garlic slices, and chipotle chili pepper; season with salt.

    Add chicken meat and stir, refrigerate for 2 hours.

    After the time has elapsed, remove the meat from the marinade and cut into thin strips 30 cm long.
  • Step 2
  • Grill the tortillas: Preheat the grill to medium heat. Spray the tortillas with oil and place them on the grill.

    Cook, turning once, until crisp, about 1 to 2 minutes per side.

    Transfer the chicken to a cutting board, cool slightly, and cut into 2.5 cm pieces.

    Coarsely chop the physalis, add salt to taste and mix with olive oil.
