The Most Delicious Ways to Turn Chicken Tinga into Dinner In its most classic form, saucy chicken tinga is stuffed inside or spooned over tortillas, to be served up as tacos or tostadas.

Instructions to make Chicken tinga:

1. Add your chicken stock and water followed by the halved onion, chiles and garlic and simmer covered for 20 minutes.
2. While that simmers add the tomatoes, lime juice and the chipotle with adobo into a large blender.
3. After you simmer for 20 minutes remove the onion, garlic and chiles to the blender and pour the stock into a separate container. Blend the mixture until smooth.
4. Add olive oil to the pot and heat up. Add the diced onion, pinch of salt and cool until browned. Retune the stock back to the pot and reduce by half.
5. Once reduced add the sauce followed by the oregano, a few pinches of salt and a few pinches of sugar and return to simmer and reduce for 30 minutes.
6. Remove 2/3 of the sauce into a sieve and push it through to remove the extra pulp, add back to the pot and simmer for another 15 to 20 minutes to reduce.
7. Once the sauce is where you want it add the chicken to the pot and heat through for about 15 minutes

Though tinga is traditionally flavored with chorizo, this quick and easy version still packs in the flavor, without forcing you to seek out special ingredients. The chicken is gently poached in broth, then shredded and tossed with a puréed sauce for extra-juicy texture and flavor. Cover saucepan and cook until chicken is cooked through and shreds easily with two. Browning chicken thighs first and then cooking them in the sauce produces a richer, more deeply flavored tinga. Using canned fire-roasted tomatoes complements the smoky and earthy chipotles in adobo.
