My two favorite chile powders=ancho and chipotle. Also, be sure to use the corn tortillas as I think it adds extra flavor.

I'm not a huge fan of chicken tacos, but these were really good! The slaw and avocado cream added a lot of flavor and made the tacos really refreshing. I will definitely be making these again.

These tacos were easy to make and so delicious! I used store-bought rotisserie chicken to save time, and the tacos were still amazing. The slaw and avocado cream were the perfect finishing touches.

The chicken tacos were good, but I found the slaw and avocado cream to be a bit bland. I would probably try a different recipe next time.

These tacos were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. The slaw and avocado cream helped to balance out the heat a bit. Overall, they were a good recipe.
