How to cook deliciously - Slow-Cooker Chicken Tinga Tacos

1 . Stage

Mash up the avocado with a fork – make it as smooth as possible, with no clumps.  

2 . Stage

Add the remaining ingredients and mix together to make smooth. Season to taste.

3 . Stage

In your multifunction cooker or slow cooker, add the ingredients for the sauce. Mix together.

4 . Stage

Nestle the chicken breasts (or tenders) into the sauce.

5 . Stage

Add the top of the cooker and cook.  For pressure cooking, seal the steam hole, set temperature between HIGH and MEDIUM HIGH, and cook for 25 – 30 minutes.  For slow cooking, cook on HIGH for 4 hours or on LOW for 6 – 8 hours.

6 . Stage

At the end of the cooking cycle, remove the chicken breasts and add them to a bowl.  Gently pull the chicken apart using forks to be shredded.   Add the shredded chicken back to the sauce and thoroughly mix together.  Pro-tip: before adding the chicken to the sauce, use an immersion blender to make the tinga sauce smooth; another option is to pour the liquid into a blender, pulse blend until smooth, then add it back to the cooker.

7 . Stage

Cook on low for an additional 6 – 10 minutes, then enjoy! If you’re making tacos, toast the tortillas in a skillet without oil. If you want to make a burrito bowl instead, here are some options: your choice of rice (brown rice or cauliflower rice); sautéed bell peppers and onions; tomato, lettuce and avocado cream.
