This recipe is a Mexican-inspired twist on potato rolls, featuring a crispy, seasoned potato base filled with a juicy, spiced chicken mixture. The chicken is cooked with peppers, onions, garlic, and a quick red sauce for a smoky, tangy kick. Rolled into the baked potato layer, the rolls are topped with melty Mexican cheese and baked to golden perfection. Garnished with fresh cilantro and optional pickled jalapeños, these rolls are perfect as a flavorful appetizer, snack, or light meal. Serve with crema or a tangy dipping sauce for extra flair!
