Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
6 cloves garlic, 4 minced, 2 smashed
2 whole cloves
2 tomatoes
5 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
½ cup chicken stock
2 teaspoons cumin
½ teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 white onions, halved and sliced
¼ lb chorizo
1 head iceberg lettuce, shredded
kosher salt
black pepper, freshly ground
2 avocados, sliced
12 corn tortillas

Steps:

  • Place chicken in a saucepan over medium heat with enough water to cover by 1 inch (3 cm).
  • Add the smashed garlic and cloves. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 12-15 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken from the pot, cool slightly, then shred with two forks.
  • Place a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, until smoking.
  • Add the tomatoes and roll slowly around until blackened on all sides, about 6 minutes.
  • Add the seared tomatoes to a blender with chipotle peppers, chicken stock, cumin, and nutmeg. Blend until smooth.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, onions, and chorizo. Cook 2-3 minutes until the onions have softened and the chorizo has rendered a little fat.
  • Add the lettuce and sauté 2-3 additional minutes, until softened.
  • Add the tomato-chili mixture and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly to incorporate.
  • Add the shredded chicken and bring mixture to a simmer. Simmer, uncovered, until most of the liquid has cooked off, about 10-15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve on warm corn tortillas with sliced avocado.
  • Enjoy!
