NOTES

• Feel free to adjust the seasonings to suit your spice preference.
• To save time, feel free to make my recipe for[ guacamole ](https://chloeting.com/recipes/easy-guacamole) ahead of time. Just be sure to keep it in an airtight container with a piece of cling wrap pressed against the surface of the guacamole to prevent browning from oxidation.
• Not a fan of chicken? This recipe is equally great with other proteins such as firm tofu, skirt steak or shrimps!
