Here is a recipe for Chicken Tinga from Mely Martínez
https://www.mexicoinmykitchen.com/chicken-tinga-recipe/

I've used different recipes over the years but here's the way I went about it recently:

RECIPE

Chop up one large or two smallish mediumish yellow onions
Chop up a few cloves of garlic or more if you're feeling dangerous
Chop up two chipotle peppers or more if you're feeling dangerous
Sauté those things in a saucepan on medium until you get bored
Add broth, a can of diced tomatoes (or just go with crushed if you don't want to do any blending) or go with fresh tomatoes. You could use most tomatoes. Except evil ones
Add in a teaspoon of salt...but probably two
Add in some cumin if you feel like it (a couple teaspoons ish)
Add in some oregano, or Mexican oregano, or as they call it in Mexico,: orégano
Get that cauldron bubbling until you can feel the spirits fill the room
Add in 3 chicken breasts and simmer for 25 minutes
Take the pot off the heat and take the chicken breasts out and shred
Once the sauce has cooled enough use a stick blender to make it smooth
Add the shreds back in
Adjust the salt and cook it until it's a consistency you like
Make sure to fry your tortillas
Add some chicken, lime crema, avocado, cilantro, and cotija cheese
Accept your award for Excellent in Pot Size Estimation
Try not to brag too much to your friends because some people really struggle with estimating liquid volume and it's not fair that you were born with such a tremendous gift.
