Jessica's Sopitos

Sopitos are a dish that I have been eating since before I can remember. It’s kind of like a combination of a sope and an enchilada because the tortilla is dipped in enchilada sauce, but eaten like a tostada. This recipe is important to me because it's one of my favorite dishes. Growing up my grandma always made this for family parties. She still makes it for the family to this day, and some popular toppings you can put on sopitos are cabbage, queso fresco from Mexico, and my grandmother makes a sweet tomato sauce to pour on top of the dish. The main toppings include chicken with pieces of carrots and potatoes. For me I think this dish is my favorite because it brings back a lot of good memories, and I always ask her to make it for my birthday. This dish is also special because this dish come from Guadalajara, and there was a little stand in the plaza where a man would make them and sell them to our family.
