Tinga de pollo is traditionally simmered on the stove, but we've reverse-engineered the recipe to minimize mess and active cook time. By throwing everything together on one sheet pan, you get the same bold flavor for a fraction of the effort. The chicken bakes in a blend of crushed tomatoes, chipotle chiles, and spices until juicy, then gets shredded right on the pan with caramelized onions and tomatoes. Piled onto crispy, oven-baked tostadas with a layer of Mexican crema and slices of avocado, it’s a high-protein meal that’s perfect for meal prep, too. It keeps beautifully in the fridge, making it ideal for easy lunches or quick dinners throughout the week.
