The heat can be adjusted to your own taste by adding or cutting down on the chipotle peppers. It works well for a buffet, and is even more flavorful the next day.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h15m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 chicken breast halves
5 medium onions, thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, chopped
1/4 cup vegetable oil
6 medium tomatoes or 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (7 ounce) can chipotle chiles in adobo
1 tablespoon chicken bouillon granule
tostadas
sour cream
shredded lettuce

Steps:

  • Put the chicken into a large pot with 1/4 c sliced onion, garlic and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until the chicken is no longer pink, about 25 minutes.
  • Remove chicken, cool, and shred meat. If using bone-in chicken, discard skin and bones.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add remaining onion slices, and fry until transparent.
  • If using fresh tomatoes, place them in a pan of boiling water (can use water used to boil chicken) and boil until they split open.
  • Place the tomatoes, chipotle peppers (use 3-4 for a little heat, up to the whole can according to your taste), and boullion into a blender or food processor. Process until smooth.
  • Pour into a large pan and add the shredded chicken and cooked onions. Heat through.
  • To serve, spread a layer of sour cream on a tostada, top with the chicken and shredded lettuce.

This tinga recipe is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the shredded chicken and the flavorful sauce. I usually serve it with rice and beans, and they always clean their plates.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this tinga recipe was just the right amount of heat for me. The chipotle peppers added a nice smokiness without being too overwhelming.

This tinga recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some roasted chicken that I shredded, and it worked perfectly in this dish. The sauce is also very versatile. I've used it on tacos, burritos, and even as a pasta sauce.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some rotisserie chicken that I shredded, and it worked perfectly in this dish. The sauce is also very versatile. I've used it on tacos, burritos, and even as a pasta sauce.

I've made tinga a few times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The chipotle peppers give it a nice smoky flavor, and the tomatoes and onions add a pop of freshness. I like to serve it with warm tortillas and guacamole.
