A beauty of a recipe! I couldn't find ground chicken so used ground turkey. I also used a mix of chilli powder, cayenne pepper and paprika for the 2tsp of spices and loved the flavour. This is also a brilliant recipe for Weight Watchers as you get the flavour of mexican food without the fatty sour cream and guacamole! I cooked mine in the oven to be sure it was fully cooked- 40 mins did the trick.

I liked the Mexican twist in these little guys! You could really taste the chili powder and it was very good. I will make these again as my family enjoyed them too. I made one change though. I didn't want to cook these in the microwave so I cooked them in the oven until they reached 170F. It took about 1/2 hour. Made for PRMR tag. Thanks! :)
