Ingredients

icon-toma 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
icon-toma 8 Scallions, thinly sliced
icon-toma 1 jar La Costeña tender cactus nopalitos, drained
icon-toma 1/2 Pound potatoes, peeled, diced and cooked
icon-toma  1/2 Tsp kosher salt
icon-toma 1 jar La Costeña Green Salsa tomatillo sauce
icon-toma 8 Corn tortillas
icon-toma   Oaxaca cheese, shredded
icon-toma   La Costeña Salsa Ranchera
icon-toma   Iceberg lettuce, shredded
icon-toma   Queso fresco, crumbled

Directions

Step 1
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions and cook for 1 minute, until softened and begun to brown. Add the nopales, cooked potatoes, sprinkle the salt and stir for a couple minutes until they begin to gently brown.
Step 2
Pour the salsa verde on top, stir, and continue cooking for 4 to 5 minutes, until thickened and seasoned. Set aside.
Step 3
Meanwhile, in a non-stick pan preheated over medium heat, heat the tortillas on both sides. Cover in a clean kitchen towel or tortilla warmer. One by one, add ½ cup of shredded cheese, once it metals and begins to bubble, top with a corn tortilla. Let it continue setting until cheese creates a brown crust all over.
Step 4
Flip the tortilla and let it crisp a bit for about a minute. Place on a plate, top with the nopalito, potato, salsa verde guisado, garnish with shredded lettuce, salsa ranchera and queso fresco. Repeat until done.
