Expert Tips

  • For a richer flavor, consider using bone-in chicken thighs instead of boneless, skinless breasts.
  • Adjust the spice level to your preference by adding more or less chili powder or using a milder variety.
  • If you don't have fresh cilantro on hand, you can substitute with parsley or omit it altogether.
