Vegetable broth reduces meat content while still adding flavor.

Wash the tomatillos and remove their husks.

Put the tomatillos, garlic, and chili Serrano into the blender.

Add a small piece of onion and 1 cup of water to the blender.

Blend the ingredients until smooth.

Fry the blended salsa in a skillet and let it simmer for about 10 minutes.

Cut the remaining ingredients for topping: lettuce, diced onion, and radish.

After the salsa has simmered, toss in the chicharrón and let it absorb the salsa.

Check the salt and adjust the consistency of the salsa by adding more water if needed.

Plate the chicharrón with the salsa, adding shredded lettuce, diced onion, radish slices, and avocado on top.

Drizzle with sour cream or crema mexicana, thinned with milk or water.
