Italy and Mexico… They're both by large bodies of water, and on the warmer side in terms of climate. They are also both... countries. Wait... this isn't a fourth grader's geography report. We aren't trying to find something in common with Italy and Mexico; we're making something in common. We're melding Italian flavors with Mexican techniques in this meal, bringing forth something delicious and new. Specifically, chicken Parmesan, always a cheesy Italian favorite, rolled and baked in tortillas into enchiladas. Marrying cuisines together, bringing forth new flavors and delights… that's not something you can find in an atlas.
