Critical Success Points
- • Marinate the chicken at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
- • Cook the tortillas twice (15 min on one side, 5 min on the other) to achieve a pliable yet slightly golden texture.
- • Do not overcook the chicken so it stays creamy.
Safety Warnings
- • Handle raw chicken with separate utensils to avoid cross‑contamination.
- • Be careful with hot oven trays and hot oil in the pan.
