SHREDDED CHICKEN TACOS



Shredded Chicken Tacos image

A recipe I found from Goya when looking for authentic chicken taco recipes. This is what the recipe stated: "Bone and skin are left on the chicken breasts so they're extra flavorful as they simmer in tomato sauce and a blend of savory seasonings." Their recipe stated to use all their brands for the seasoning, vinegar, oil etc., but using what you have on hand will work. The "Adobo with pepper" is a seasoning I found in my stores ethnic isle.

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

16 ounces tomato sauce (2 - 8 ounce cans Goya brand tomato sauce)
2 teaspoons white distilled vinegar
2 teaspoons minced garlic
3 1/2 teaspoons dried ancho chile powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons leaf oregano
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 lbs bone-in skin-on chicken breasts
adobo with pepper, to taste
1 (10 ounce) package corn tortillas, warmed
1/4 cup white onion, finely chopped
1 lime, cut into wedges
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
hot sauce

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, mix together tomato sauce, vinegar, garlic, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and sugar. Season with Adobo; set aside.
  • 2. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with Adobo. Cook chicken, turning once, until light golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Add reserved tomato sauce mixture to pan; bring to a boil (be careful, the tomato sauce can splatter). Lower heat to medium low. Simmer, covered, until cooked through (thermometer will register 170 degrees F when inserted into thickest part of breast), flipping once, about 20 minutes.
  • 3. Transfer chicken to cutting board; reserve sauce in pan. Remove and discard bones and skin. Using two forks, shred chicken breast. Transfer chicken to skillet with sauce, mixing to combine; continue to cook until sauce reduces and blends into chicken, and mixture begins to caramelize, about 10 minutes more.
  • 4. Transfer chicken mixture to serving bowl. Spoon into warmed corn tortillas. Garnish with lettuce, tomatoes, avocados and/or onions, if desired. Sprinkle with hot sauce, if desired.

SHREDDED CHICKEN FOR ENCHILADAS, TOSTADAS, TACOS...



Shredded Chicken for Enchiladas, Tostadas, Tacos... image

This is an authentic filling used for Mexican dishes such as: enchiladas, tostadas and tacos. You can easily double the recipe, as it freezes well. I always have some on hand in the freezer. Use this in place of plain shredded chicken; and it will kick an average Mexican recipe up a notch (IMHO). COOK'S NOTES: 1 whole frying chicken, giblets and excess fat removed, can be used instead of boneless chicken breasts.
