Chicken Chalupas

Recipe #237923 | 17 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 6 -8 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Vicki in CT

Crunchy, cheesy, and delicious. From Some Like it Hot by the Junior League of McAllen TX. Whenever we grill we always cook extra chicken for chalupas, enchiladas, paninis, etc. This recipe can easily be halved.
