Chicken VS Beef

Do you prefer your enchiladas with chicken or with beef?

Chicken

Anabelle says:

With chicken and served with a few salsas, especially if it's a Mexican salsa like salsa taquera. Mmm, SO good! But beef can be freaking delicious too if it's marinated right... Hard choice, but generally I'd choose chicken.
