  7. Step 7

    Let cool 5 minutes then serve on its own, with Mexican rice, or over flatbread or in hard-shell tacos! Garnish with minced cilantro and grilled lemon juice.

Why this product

If you’re looking for an even more authentic flavor, replace the oregano, paprika, and jalapenos with a pureed can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (which you can find at most Mexican food stores).
