For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chicken mixture. Feel free to substitute ground beef or turkey for the rotisserie chicken. Add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for extra creaminess. Get creative with your toppings! Consider adding avocado, pickled onions, or a drizzle of hot sauce. For gluten-free option, use corn tortillas.

Apr 29, 2025The taco seasoning was a bit too salty for my taste, so I used half the packet and it was perfect.
