Chipotle Chicken

This chicken has a serious KICK to it... and it's so good as a taco, burrito, or enchilada filling. Move over Cafe Rio... 

Ingredients:

4 chicken breasts
3 Chipotle Peppers + a little juice
2C tomato juice (or 1 can sauce + 2C water)
1 onion, chopped
1 can diced green chiles
1/2 bunch cilantro (optional)
3 juiced lemons +1/2 rind
salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Combine all ingredients in a large stock pot (or crock pot). Add a bit of water to completely cover the chicken, if necessary). Bring to a boil, lower heat to simmer and cook for an hour and a half to two hours (if using crock pot, cook on high 4 hours), stirring occasionally. Remove chicken from broth, shred into large bowl or pan. Add a little of the broth, discarding the whole peppers and lemon rind. Place on tortillas, top with guacamole and sour cream or yogurt.


And a new feature here at Dancing in the Kitchen... I will provide a printable recipe card! Show some love would ya?!
