Notes

  • Warm the tortillas: Warm the tortillas before adding the chicken so that they are soft and pliable.
  • Hard taco shells: If you prefer hard taco shells, you can use those instead.
  • Keep tortillas warm: To keep tortillas warm, wrap them in a clean kitchen towel or aluminum foil and place them in a low oven (around 200°F) until ready to serve.
