"These flavorful, rolled corn tortillas are filled with a simple combination of chicken, shredded cheese and fresh cilantro, then topped with a spicy homemade sauce and extra cheese. We use boneless, skinless thighs and simmer them right in the sauce. This makes the chicken extra-tender and adds depth of flavor to the sauce...."
