About Chicken enfrijolada
Chicken enfrijolada is a traditional Mexican dish known for its hearty and comforting flavors. It consists of tender shredded chicken encased in warm tortillas, which are coated in a rich bean-based sauce made from puréed black or pinto beans, garlic, onion, and chili peppers. Often garnished with crumbled queso fresco, sour cream, avocado slices, or fresh cilantro, it is both satisfying and full of textures. This dish is a good source of protein from the chicken and beans, along with fiber found in the legumes. The beans also provide essential minerals like iron and magnesium. However, depending on preparation, it may be high in sodium, fat, or caloric content, especially if served with cheese, cream, or fried tortillas. Opting for whole-grain tortillas and reducing added fats can create a lighter, nutrient-rich version of this flavorful Mexican classic.
