Excellent looking chicken dish.


The chicken came from "El Corral" on Ocampo in Todos Santos. We bought the produce at Lizarraga and everything else at Hermanos Martinez.

I often buy meat from those guys. They are very accommodating as to cutting meats and grinding the burger to your specifications.
Btw, good on you for knowing street names in todos. I know long time residents who couldn't tell you where ocampo street is, even though it's one of the more used roads.

Downtown Todos Santos is fairly small, but it's easy enough to avoid "Main Street" (Juarez) and find what the pueblo has to offer beyond Hotel California. We've come to realize that the real gems of Todos Santos are hiding in plain sight on Colegio Militar and its cross streets, and that it's well worth the effort to learn them. I just wish we were able to be there for more than 6 days this year!

It is customary for the clients on Baja mule trips to provide food and beverages for the guides. Our trips we take home raised by us grass fed beef, yams, chards and spinach.

We purchase locally the tortillas and cheese. Mix the greens with olive oil and cook in a foil wrap which is also how we cook the yams. Grill the beef, peppers and onions. Tacos, yams and greens!

Our guides always say it is the best food any clients have provided.
Add wine, beer and the infamous local tea and all are quite content.

Thank you Born Fisher for the video.

Baja Fresh is so much more than a state of mind.
