Chef's Tips

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the cinnamon-sugar mixture.

Store leftover tortilla crisps in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven for a few minutes to re-crisp.

The chocolate dipping sauce can be made ahead of time and reheated gently before serving. You can also add a tablespoon of coffee or a splash of liqueur (such as Kahlua) to the chocolate sauce for an adult twist.

"This starter offers a refreshing contrast to the warm, spiced fajitas. The sweetness of the corn and the lime's acidity cut through the richness of the chicken and peppers, while mirroring the Mexican cuisine and providing a light, healthy beginning to the meal."
