Are you looking for tasty shredded chicken to use for burritos or tacos or nachos or whatever? Look no further - this stuff is AH-MAZE-ING! You really get the chipotle taste but it's not too strong. The chicken is moist and full of flavor! It's a taste explosion in your mouth!
What you need:
4 boneless chicken breast halves
1/2 medium onion, sliced
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1 tablespoon salt
water
2 tablespoons butter
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
1 teaspoon marjoram
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped (or to taste)
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons tomato sauce
2 tablespoons chipotle sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons salt (to taste)
1/2 cup chicken broth (reserved)
Directions: 1. Place first four ingredients in a pot. Add just enough water to cover the chicken.
2. Bring to a slow boil, cover, lower heat to maintain a simmer and cook until done, about 20 - 25 minutes. If using a whole chicken; cook approximately 50 - 60 minutes.
3. Remove chicken from pot, let cool and shred. (I cool my chicken in the refrigerator to be safe) If using a whole chicken; remove meat from bones and shred. Reserve broth.
4. In a large pan, melt butter over low heat.
5. Add the remaining ingredients listed, except tomato sauce, salt, and broth.
6. Sauté until soft, about 10 minutes.
7. Stir in shredded chicken and briefly sauté.
8. Add tomato sauce and chipotle sauce and ½ cup of reserved broth.
9. Salt to taste.
10. Make your burrito however you prefer with the chicken. Devour.
