For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the chicken mixture.

    These were amazing! A bit of work, but so worth it!

    I used flour tortillas instead of corn, and they were still great!

  • Olaf Frami

    I thought they were a little too spicy for my kids, so next time I'll reduce the amount of chile peppers.
