    I've been watching Foodwishes for about 10 years now. It's funny how you feel like you know someone who doesn't even know you exist. My daughter is 10 years old and she "knows" Chef John as well. He's the first person she ever watched religiously on CZcams and he helped shaped her love of cooking. She even says "Enjoy!" when she makes the family dinner on Wednesdays. I'd go to his funeral.

The smokiness, the deep chicken flavor, the incredible versatility of dishes to come is nothing short of a short order cooks' dream. Mucho gracias chef John!

    Making this tonight. For once, I have all the ingredients to follow along.
    My plan is tacos along with black beans and rice.
    My dad says, "It better not suck!" Haha! I'm sure he'll enjoy this one!
    Edit:
    Multiple bazingas for your take on the tinga, sir! I ignored the comment section, and did exactly as you described. This stuff is fantastic--with a capital 'TASTIC'!
    The key is making it a labor of love, and letting the components properly reduce producing a very rich, mouthwatering, comfort food. I don't think you could emphasize that enough.
    I went through the motions of making my own taco, after feeding everyone else, then just went straight for the money. Tinga over my black beans and rice with cilantro salsa, queso fresco, and sliced jalapeno on the side...I'm ready to be read a story and tucked into bed.
    Thank you once again for the lesson.
    Oh, and Dad said it didn't suck! That's like 4 stars from Judge Judy!

    Hey Chef John! You are my secret weapon!! The dishes I am most well known for (white bean salad, cherry bomb chicken) and several other come directly from you, as well as a good deal of my "style" when cooking, so: thank you, very very much. One for you: make the white bean salad using cilantro instead of italiam parsley and whole grain mustard instead of dijon, then add 2-3 med-cuded roma tomatoes. It's amazing! Can't wait to make Chicken Tinga! I plan to use leftover "rotisserie chicken", and pre-make the sauce using some fat and broth. Keep making the videos!!

    Hi Chef John! I made your chicken tinga today and I think I realized I've never truly had a delicious tinga taco. This recipe is over the top delicious! Starting with chicken stock instead of just water, blending the boiled onion into the sauce, and sautéing additional onion for the sauce created some depths of flavor that tinga dreams are made of! We ENJOYED! Thank you for sharing.

Allrecipes has been my "go to" for over a decade, but now I check to see if you have a recipe for what I'm looking for first! I used to start out with a specific plan about what I wanted to cook, but now I check your blog open minded, like, I have no idea what I want to make, and I know any recipe you have will be amazing.

    Made this last weekend just a couple of days after you posted the tostada shell recipe. I can confirm that this makes amazing tacos, quesadillas, and taco salads.
    However I had this crazy idea for the next time I make it, Mexican Jambalaya! It would be made basically the same way except at the point you are sauteeing the onions, also add green peppers, and at the point you mix in the tomato/chipotle sauce also add black beans, corn, and maybe 3/4 cup uncooked rice.

  • @amythystsilver
    @amythystsilver Před 6 lety +1

    Hi Chef John! I just made this recipe after searching your channel for chicken recipes. Instead of just thighs, I used a whole chicken and skipped the blending step since my crushed tomatoes and chipotle sauce were conveniently already smooth. I also added a beef cube instead of chicken because I didn't have any on hand but I still wanted that extra savoury flavour. My family loves it! We even have leftovers to enjoy for tomorrow. Thanks for the recipe~

  • @privatecitizen5264
    @privatecitizen5264 Před 4 lety +3

    I learned my tinga from an older Oaxacan woman. Traditionally, breasts are used (I prefer thighs too, for flavor).
    We also use the juice and zest of lime. She recommends a good squeeze of honey, and I don't argue. We blend cilantro stems into the sauce and use the leaves to finish. The chicken is browned off, then removed and the onions and tomatoes are cooked and softened in the same pot. The sauce is then made in the blender and the chicken is then poached in the sauce, which allows the onion and tomatoes time to cook out the raw flavor and slightly sweeten. She also kept the sauce much thicker, and I prefer it.
    It's served on a tostada which is painted with crema, then the whole thing is topped with the cilantro leaves. It's best to let the tostada soften under the chicken before consumption.

    Hi Chef John! I've made this now twice in the past week and I'm so glad I did. It's not a difficult recipe and I can see a lot of variations and applications for it. I tried doing one batch without blending the tinga sauce (food processor for the onions/peppers, hand crushed for tomatoes) and I wasn't a fan. The blending I think is really key to getting the flavor evenly distributed. The second batch was made just like how you have and it turned out perfect!

      Colter Thompson if you want to be more authentic about it....when you've blended the sauce up, strain through a finer mesh colander into a hot pan with a tablespoon of oil to fry the sauce. This is a very important Mexican culinary step. Also there should be copias amounts of half caramelized onions in with the chicken.

      @Ashley Ashley
      "Fry the sauce"? Pardon my ignorance, but in practice wouldn't trying to fry anything with this much water content end up being equivalent to simply boiling it (which we've already done)? Genuinely curious about this Mexican culinary step. Would appreciate some insight, thanks!

    • @SkkyJuse
      @SkkyJuse Před 6 lety +5

      Elmokorvo :) It does sound weird to fry a sauce, and it does on occasion provide you with a few nice hot liquid splashes. As an American that learned from many Mexican cooks (bro in law, mom in law, cousins in law, etc.) every time they'd say, "Now we fry the sauce," I'd be like uh huh, okay. But, now cooking Mexican food for more than 20 years, I know all the tricks. Basically you want to heat a Tbsp or two of oil until shimmering (in a larger pot for beginners), rest a fine mesh strainer on the pot and pour in your blender contents. It's going to splatter and splash, but you'll instantly see a beautiful color change that you wouldn't see until you cooked the heck out of it like he does for 15 minutes in stock, and by then all the fresh taste has long gone. Also, I ALWAYS use fresh tomatoes, canned ones never taste the same. Also, he has wayyyyy too much sauce, there should be a pretty equal ratio to meat, sauce, and caramelized onions.
      Basically the tomato sauce that he makes, is a Mexican mother sauce (strained at least) that can be the base to enchilada sauce, Mexican fideo soup, Mexican chipotle and shrimp soup, and the list goes on.

  • @gloriac9840
    @gloriac9840 Před 4 lety

    Chicken Tinga tostadas are one of my fav foods. I make them often. I make them pretty much the same but I add some cumin and always top with some sour cream, works nicely with the spicy. I recently discovered some cinnamon is also tasty in the sauce (an almost imperceivable amout.) I never reduce the broth or the sauce so much but I can see how that would be wonderful. I will do that next time. Thank you chef John, you make me a better cook.

    I've never heard of Chicken Tinga before, but it looks gorgeous. It sort of reminds me of my own favourite food ever, Spanish Stew with Chorizo, Chicken, chopped Olives, potatoes and roasted peppers. Very rich and tomatoey, fantastic with crusty bread.
    I don't know if it's 'authentic' but I know it tastes fantastic.

    I did a few years cooking on a line in downtown Seattle. One of the Mexican prep cooks made Tinga out of the scraps after they cleaned 100 lbs of Chx for service. Served plain on top of a deep fried corn tortilla. I had never had it before, and was completely mind blown.
    I've since moved away, and practiced making it several times now, because it's one of the things I miss about living there. That and fresh Bao/ good Pho....

    Awesome recipe Chef John. I make a very similar Chicken Tinga too. The one thing I like to do a little differently though is rather than poach the chicken in the stock first, I sear the thighs in a very hot griddle pan for a minute a side to get some color on then and then slice those up and once the rest of the recipe is done and the sauce is ready, I gently simmer and poach them in the sauce so that they absorb the flavor nicely and also don't overcook in the process. It does end up with a little more fat since the initial rendering doesn't happen but like you said, we can always skim that off.
