I have made these with both chicken and beef. Delicious take on tacos if you want to expand your horizons and authentic Mexican taste. They are full of flavor (thanks in huge part to the blended ingredients), but don't have an overpowering heat to them that a lot of these dishes often have. Great for a family dinner because everyone can add toppings to their own tastes.
