Chicken Tinga


We have a Mexican restaurant near us that makes the best chicken tinga tacos, and this is my attempt to replicate it, using my pressure cooker.

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • minced garlic, to taste
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1-3 chopped chipotle peppers canned in adobo sauce (depending on how spicy you want it)
  • 1-2 tablespoons of adobo sauce 
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • salt to taste
Using the sauté function, sauté the onion until translucent. Add the garlic and spices and sauté 1-2 minutes more. Add the rest of the ingredients and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. Manually release and put chicken in stand mixer bowl with about 1/2 cup of the liquid. Mix in the stand mixer on low until shredded.
