- Toast the pasilla chile in a dry pan, then blend with canned tomatoes.
- Soften onion and garlic in vegetable oil. Scoop them into the blender and puree with the chile-tomato mix.

- Add cubed chicken breasts and cook about 5 minutes until just done. Ladle over avocado, cheddar and tortilla chips. Serve with lime.
Shopping tip
Pasilla/ancho is medium in PT. Use a dried pepper mix or extra paprika plus chili flakes if needed. Tortilha chips are easy. Queijo flamengo for melting cheese.
