EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

If you can’t find fresh cactus, look for chopped cactus in the ethnic section of your grocery store or at a specialty market.

Buy a rotisserie chicken from the deli for the cooked chicken in this recipe. A 2-lb chicken will yield about 4 cups cubed.

I found cactus in a jar in the Mexican section of our local grocery store. (I live in a small town in North Carolina... there's no Mexican grocery store here.) I made the chili tonight and it was terrific. More soupy than typical chili but it had wonderful flavor. I will be making this a lot this winter! Yum. (And thanks for the advice from other posters!)

Sounds DELISH... I know my local grocery store has cactus...It's not any kind of a "specialty" store.Just a regular store(WINCO)- kinda between a"box" store and a regular super market. I wondering if you could use Tamitos(sp?) in this (NOT Tomatoes). Little green "fruit" with a paper skin on it. Used in salsas and other Mexican dishes.
