Once cooked, blend the tomatoes and onion with 2 cloves of raw garlic.

In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and sauté the blended sauce until well seasoned.

Add 1 teaspoon of salt and a bit of chicken broth (optional) and black pepper; let it simmer for about 5 minutes.

Fry the tortillas in oil until slightly crispy to make them more resistant.

Dip the fried tortillas in the sauce to coat them.

Fill each tortilla with cooked chicken and roll them up tightly.

Place the filled tortillas on a serving plate and top with more sauce.

Garnish with crema, requesón, chopped onion, and avocado.
