Chicken tinga is a Mexican stew of chicken, tomato, onion, and chipotle peppers. The dish is savory, smoky, tangy, and as satisfying as any comfort food. It's incredibly versatile and makes a nice filling for tacos, burritos, huaraches, enchiladas, and even nachos. Like most stews, it also keeps well, and may even taste best on the second or third day as the flavors marry.

Crockpot Chicken Tinga step by step

Cook chicken. While the chicken is cooking, cut up romas, onions and jalapenos. Seed the jalapeños if you don't want it really spicy. I seed half of them. Put cut up veggies in crockpot. Turn on high..
When chicken is done completely and cooled some, shred chicken and add to crockpot..
Cook rice per package directions and add mixed veggies to rice after rice is done. Sprinkle with tomato bouillon and mix together. Careful not to add to much to this step as it is salty. It's just to add a touch of flavoring to the rice. I keep the rice separate from the tinga..
Start with rice in a bowl and smother the rice with the Tinga. I use the leftovers to make burritos. That recipe to come in a few days! Enjoy!.

The chicken can be simmered slowly on the stovetop or is perfectly prepared in the slow cooker. Chicken Tinga is traditionally served as tacos or tostadas, but can make a filling for many Mexican dishes. The recipe is thought to have originated in Puebla, Mexico. Once the chicken simmers in the sauce, it will have a nice smoky chipotle flavor. This version is made easy in the slow cooker and can be used in so many recipes.
