This rich and creamy chicken and spinach dish is spiced up with plenty of garlic, onion and roasted poblano chiles. I suggest sauteing aromatics with the chicken itself, which result in a beautiful base for a pan sauce, as well as adding a roasted jalapeño for an extra kick. Chef Bayless suggests cubing the chicken, whereas I recommend shredding it for a more consistent texture and an optimal melding of flavors. Also…

Taquitos - those crunchy rolled-up corn tortillas with tasty fillings - are the perfect snack food. They're easy to make and you can serve them as dippers and appetizers or turn them into a full meal buried underneath lettuce, salsa, and sour cream.
