For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a dollop of sour cream or guacamole to each taco.
If you prefer a spicier taco, increase the amount of cayenne pepper to your liking.
For a vegetarian option, substitute the chicken with sauteed black beans or seasoned tofu.
To prevent the tortillas from tearing, warm them in a skillet, microwave, or steamer until pliable.
