This was good, but not impressively so. Pepitas are roasted, and ground in the blender with white onion, garlic, cilantro, lettuce leaves, radish leaves, serrano peppers and chicken broth. Then you fry this sauce, as is typical for many recipes in this cookbook. The instructions also specify a second round of blending, but I didn't think my poor blender could do much to make it any smoother.

After the sauce is made, you add pre-cooked chicken. For me, this was chicken left over from making broth. If you followed this recipe from the beginning - you would have poached a chicken and used the liquid for this recipe's broth.

13 daughter really enjoyed this, but the rest of us were so-so.
