Ingredients

12 servings

1 batch chicken tinga
12 to 16 corn tortillas (homemade or store-bought)
fresh lime wedges
toppings: chopped fresh cilantro, sliced red onions (or quick pickled red onions), sliced avocados (or guacamole), crumbled cotija cheese, and/or Mexican crema

Instructions

Prepare the chicken tinga according to recipe instructions, either on the stovetop, in the Instant Pot, or in the Crock-Pot.
Just before serving, warm the tortillas so that they are nice and soft. (This is my favorite warming method.)
Fill the tacos with a large spoonful of the chicken tinga, drizzle each with a squeeze of lime juice, then top with your favorite toppings.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
