Chef Esther takes tacos to a whole new level with this dish! Tender brisket is braised to perfection with a hint of spiciness that will keep you coming back for bite after bite, especially once it's tucked into corn tortillas and topped with queso fresco, pickled onions and jalapeños. Served with a side of cilantro-lime rice and a velvety smooth avocado crema, this dish is simply irresistible.
