Considered one of my favourite Issues to Do in Oaxaca Metropolis was taking a cooking class at Dos Corazones, the place Chef Aubrey shared her grandmother’s treasured recipe for Oaxacan Hen Picadillo. It’s a savory, barely candy mixture of shredded hen, tomatoes, raisins, and spices that we used to stuff inside chile rellenos. However, it’s additionally used to fill tacos dorados, quesadillas, or as a fundamental dish. I may’ve positively eaten it straight from the pan and been completely happy!
