I was born in Sacramento in the mid 40s and found Chicano in many restaurants — some better than others

Just looked online and found it the same as my recipe except I never made it or ate it with potatoes

Except for the potatoes and chilis, that’s Hawaiian chop steak!

I never used to add adobo and sazon to things that weren't puerto rican recipes... ever since I purchased yours I have tried adding them on potatoes that I fry up for breakfast with eggs, putting in soups, really anything and the flavor is amzing.

adobo will go on everything. I almost wish I had it in me to challenge that statement.

Two tablespoons of black pepper is definitely a lot - especially with those chiles and jalapeños in there! I’m gonna need my big girl pants for this one!

That's a misprint, because I was taking shit from two different versions I saw. Do one or the other! hAha.

illyanna,,,this brought back so many memories of my Mom making this dish. I'm 76 years young and was born in Stockton Ca. I went to John Marshall Jr.High and graduated from Edison High. I found this article so interesting. Thank You for the memories 🤗
