Method
- Wash hands with soap and water.
- In a non-stick skillet over low heat, sauté chicken in oil until chicken turns white.
- Constantly stir the chicken to keep it from sticking.
- Add onion, garlic, green pepper, and tomato.
- Cook until chicken mixture is cooked through.
- Remove skillet from stove and let mixture cool in the refrigerator.
- While the chicken mixture is cooling, place the flour in a large mixing bowl and stir in enough water to make a stiff tortilla-like dough.
- When the chicken mixture has cooled, mix in the cheese.
- Divide the dough into 24 portions.
- With your hands, roll the dough into balls and flatten each ball into a 1/2 ich thick circle.
- Put a spoonful of the chicken mixture in the middle of each circle of dough and bring the edges to the center.
- Flatten the ball of dough again until it is 1/2 inch thick.
- In a very hot, iron skillet, cook the pupusas on each side until golden brown.
- Serve hot.
