Zesty Chicken Recipes Everyone Loves
We make Mexican chicken recipes often! A lot of these recipes can be used as main dishes or as appetizers, they’re so versatile! Why we love chicken recipes:
Bold spices and flavors. Onions, garlic, Mexican oregano, chili powder, chipotle peppers, and cumin, along with Green Chili Sauce, Red Chili Sauce, and Salsa are tell-tale signs of yummy Mexican cuisine. The perfect canvas. Protein like Chicken can naturally take on a variety of flavor profiles and tastes and these robust flavors are perfect! From make-ahead to freezer-friendly. Many of these dishes can be prepped or frozen ahead of time, and all of them are simple!
Our Favorite Mexican Chicken Recipes
Many of our favorites use shredded chicken. Make meal prep a breeze and freeze cooled chicken in an airtight container to be used later in these delicious recipes. We especially love a good chicken quesadilla and Burrito Bowls. To cook your own: We love to pair these with our favorite sides: Homemade Spanish Rice Recipe, Mexican Street Corn Recipe, Canned Refried Beans, Guacamole, or Cilantro Lime Rice.
