Chicken Tinga Tacos
A flavorful way to cook meat for tacos. Could use the tinga sauce on anything!
In a pan, saute the chopped onions for around 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute for 2-3 more minutes.
Add chipotle peppers (with sauce), tomatoes, chilis, and all seasonings to the pan. Let simmer and cook for around 5 minutes.
Pour the hot tinga mixture into a large food processor or blender. Be sure to let some of the heat/steam escape while blending. Blend until smooth.
Place the rinsed chicken breasts into a crockpot. Pour the tinga mixture over the chicken and cook on low for 5-6 hours.
Shred the chicken and pour the tinga sauce back over the shredded chicken and mix to incorporate. Serve with the warm tortillas and your favorite toppings!
