This is a Mexican menu item. I can find Chilapa as a municipality in the state of Guerrero, México, but haven't found anything related to cooking. Anyone know what it might be? Thanks.

CHILAPAS
Un tradicional antojito mexicano, para chuparse los dedos
Ingredientes:
• 1/2 kg de masa para tortillas
• 3 cucharadas de manteca
• Aceite
• Sal
• Para el Relleno: 1 pechuga de pollo, cocida y desmenuzada
• 1 taza de crema
• 1 latita de chiles chipotles en adobo
• 1 aguacate, cortado en rebanadas
• 2 hojas de lechuga, picadas
• 3 cucharadas de queso añejo rallado
Manera de hacerse:
1 Revuelva la masa con la manteca y un poco de sal, hasta integrarlas.
2 Divida la masa en 24 bolitas.
3 Engrase por fuera un moldecito especial para chilapas o un mole metálico para gelatina individual. Tome una bolita de masa y aplánela como si fuera a hacer una tortilla pequeña; colóquela sobre la parte engrasada del moldecito y oprímala contra ella, para darle forma de chilapa (o cazuelita). Haga lo mismo con el resto de las bolitas de masa.
4 En un sartén con aceite muy caliente, fría las chilapas, con todo y molde, hasta que estén ligeramente doradas. Sáquelas del sartén, sepárelas del molde y póngalas a escurrir sobre papel absorbente.
5 Rellene las chilapas con un poco de pollo; coloque encima una cucharadita de crema, una tirita de chile chipotle, una tirita de aguacate y un poquito de lechuga, para terminar, espolvoréeles el queso.

: 1.- no son cazuelas -hechas de barro-, sino de masa de maíz. 2.- se pide traducción -o no, en este caso- al inglés.

toasted/ fried corn tortillas made with dough that has been shaped
Just to add a description to Theresa's answer, in case you need to provide an explanation in English. Chilapas/ chalupitas are tortilla-based dishes, consisting of frying or cooking corn tortilla dough that has been shaped. Chalupas/chalupitas have a boat/canoe shape. Chilapas can vary from cup shape to a thin rounded disk. In your context, it is filled with fish.
Chalupas These are made by pressing tortilla dough into an elongated shape with a ridge around the edge, resembling the chalupas or canoes from which they take their name. They are cooked on a comal, and sometimes fried as well, then topped with shredded meat, cheese and similar fillings.

Las Carmelitas For the town’s best chalupitas—crispy toasted tortillas stuffed with shredded pork. Details 10 Norte 1408; 011-52-222-235-9130.
A chalupa is a kind of tostada platter in Mexican cuisine. It is a specialty of south-central regions of Mexico, such as the states of Puebla, Guerrero and Oaxaca. It is made by pressing a thin layer of masa dough around the outside of a small mold and then deep frying it to produce a crisp shallow corn cup. It is typically filled with shredded chicken or pork meat, chopped onion, and a piece of chipotle pepper or red or green salsa.
chah-LOO-pah] Spanish for "boat" or "launch," a chalupa is a corn tortilla dough formed into a small boat shape and fried until crisp. It's then usually filled with shredded beef, pork or chicken, vegetables, cheese or a combination of these, and served as an appetizer.
