Method
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the sliced onions until they are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic to the pot and cook for another minute.
- Add the chicken thighs to the pot and season with salt, pepper, cumin, and oregano. Brown the chicken on all sides for about 5 minutes.
- In a blender, combine the chipotle peppers and chicken broth. Blend until smooth.
- Pour the blended sauce over the browned chicken in the pot. Stir to combine.
- Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for about 25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pot and shred it using two forks.
- Add the shredded chicken back into the pot and stir it into the sauce. Allow it to cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Notes
Serve with warm tortillas or rice, and top with fresh cilantro, avocado, queso fresco, sour cream or pico de gallo.
