Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 Roma tomatoes (1 1/2 pounds), quartered
1 small yellow onion, quartered
3 garlic cloves, peeled and halved lengthwise
1 jalapeño, stemmed and halved lengthwise
1 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
5 dried Guajillo chile peppers (1 ounce), stemmed, seeded and torn into large pieces
1/4 cup safflower or canola oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
8 ounces corn tortilla chips
4 cups shredded rotisserie chicken (from 1 whole chicken)
Finely chopped white onion, sliced radishes, chopped avocado, crumbled queso fresco, sour cream, chopped cilantro and pickled jalapeños, for serving

Steps:

Place a rack 6 inches from the broiler heat source and heat to high. On a sheet pan, combine tomatoes, onion, garlic and jalapeño, and broil until lightly charred in spots, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes for the garlic and 15 to 20 minutes for the tomatoes, onion and jalapeño. (They should be lightly charred around the edges, but not all over). Transfer to a blender.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan combine the broth and dried chiles, and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and let stand while the tomatoes and vegetables broil.
To the blender add the rehydrated chiles with broth, oil, salt and coriander, and purée until smooth.
Heat oven to 425 degrees. On the same sheet pan (no need to wash), toss chips with 2 cups of the sauce and spread in an even layer. Toss the chicken with the remaining sauce and arrange on top of the chips. Roast until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Garnish with preferred toppings, and serve warm.
