Tinga is a dish originating in Puebla, Mexico and consists of shredded chicken cooked in a tomato, chipotle pepper, and adobo sauce. In this Isthmus Eats version, you will use sliced chicken breast and a red spicy enchilada sauce for a quick and easy weeknight meal. You will quickly pickle red onions for a tart topping and bake oiled tortillas to make the perfect crispy tostadas. Additional toppings include refried beans, crema, and fresh cilantro.

Enjoy, Mad-Town!
