Started out roasting some jalapenos and green onions. These jalapenoes were too hot to eat. I had one and it darned near killed me. My Wife couldn't eat them either.


In a CI pan some jalapenos that were seeded and deveined along with some onion were sauteed.


Picked up 2 lbs marinated Pollo Asada at a Mexican Market. Started the chicken indirect. After about 15 minutes I cooked them direct to get some color on them.


Moved them indirect to let them finish cooking. The only one that needed more time was the thicker one.


Let it rest for a bit them chopped it up.


Added some mayo to a bolio and toasted it on the grill


Torta consisted of beans, lettuce, tomato, avocado, the chicken, sauteed onion/jalapeno and Panela cheese. Served with the green onion, tomato slices and some chips with beans.


 
That's a perfect torta de pollo asado. It's plated perfectly!!! way better than any restaurant I have been too. Nice job.
 
It all looks delicious. We had jalapenos yesterday. Out off 10, only 1 was too hot to eat. Unfortunately, we didn't know until it was already eaten!
 
And Mr. Solak pulled off another supreme Mexican themed meal!! Nice dude nice!!

You have some great imagination and creativity! Love it!
 
I know that the torta is the star of the show here, but when I saw those grilled scallions, I started drooling. I love it when green onions get just the right amount of char, giving that great contrast in flavors when the charred crispy bits combine with oniony white parts.
