Shredded Chicken With Chipotle And Avocado
5 (3 ratings)
This quick and easy recipe was inspired by my travels to Oaxaca. Rotisserie or other precooked chicken makes fast work of this versatile filling, which gets a big flavor boost from chipotle in adobo. I dreamed this up to go with chalupas and sopes, but it would be wonderful in tacos, burritos, enchiladas and more.
