Chicken Tinga

This authentic Chicken Tinga recipe is straight out of Jalisco, Mexico. I learned it from my sister-in-law Alma, a former street food vendor and one of the most talented cooks I’ve ever met in my life. Everything she makes is the best I’ve ever had. I may be a classically-trained chef, but nothing beats the authentic cooking lessons you can get from the natives, and I’m so excited to share her master recipe with you.
