Скачать или смотреть Crispy Serrano Chile Crunch – Spicy Topping You’ll Want on Everything

Move over salsa—this crispy serrano chile topping is the ultimate flavor bomb. It’s spicy, crunchy, savory, and adds the perfect hit of heat and texture to tacos, eggs, noodles, pozole… anything. Think of it like a cross between chile crunch and salsa macha—only brighter and punchier.

This is Serrano Chicharrón, and it’s a game-changer.

INGREDIENTS:
1 lb serrano chiles, cut into rounds
24 oz peanut oil
12 cloves peeled garlic
10 sprigs of thyme
1 Tablespoon of toasted sesame seeds
Kosher salt to taste

COOKING METHOD
1. Heat garlic, thyme and oil in an appropriately sized pot until the oil reaches 350F/176.7C. Once garlic is golden brown and thyme is fragrant, remove from the oil.
2. Add the serrano chiles to the oil and cook while stirring until they are crispy (about 25 minutes).
3. Strain from oil and place on a paper towel lined sheet pan. Season with salt.
4. Cool chiles and oil for 25 minutes.
5. Place chiles in a jar with sesame seeds and some salt and cover with some of the oil.
5. Cover and store at room temp for up to a month.

📦 Pro Tip: The crispy serranos and oil make a killer topping AND finishing oil. Spoon it over tacos, rice bowls, grilled meats, or even pizza.
