FAQs and Kylee’s notes
- Use pre-cooked shredded chicken in place of raw, you won’t need to cook it as long as if you were using raw.
- If you like things spicy, add some crushed red pepper flakes to the chicken when you add the cumin/coriander. Maybe a pinch of cayenne in the sauce.
- Add a can of black beans – boost the protein content!
- Add a little cheese to the sauce with the chilies. Because cheese is awesome.
