📝 Ingredients
- 1 batch Chicken Tinga
- 6 large poblanos
- 1 1/2 cups shredded Queso Chihuahua or Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 avocado
- Handful of cilantro
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 3 pickled jalapenos

👨🍳 Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 450° F.

- 3Make the avocado crema by combining all of the ingredients in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
