These are Adam's absolute favorite tacos and the recipe of my friend Libby. I tried to replicate them last night and got rave reviews.
-2 rotisserie chickens, meat shredded (or 4 large chicken breasts, cooked and shredded)
-3 poblano peppers (roasted, skins removed, and diced)
-Medium onion, chopped
-1-2 tbsp chili powder
-1-2 tbsp cumin
-can of chipotle in adobo sauce (I use the sauce only....about 1 tbsp)
-2 cans of diced tomatoes
I roast peppers right on my gas cooktop. You can also use your grill or broil in your oven. Blacken and blister skins of peppers. Place in a paper or plastic bag. Seal bag and let sit for a few minutes. Pull skins off peppers and seed them. Chop up peppers and set aside. Cook onion in pan in a little olive oil. Once onions are translucent, add in chicken, peppers, spices, and diced tomatoes. I use about 1 tbsp of the adobo sauce (or as much as I can strain out of the jar) but don't add in any chipotle peppers. You can chop some and add in if you like. Do a small amount at a time and test...they are so spicy and add a lot of heat. Simmer on stovetop until flavors are melded (at least 15+ mins). Serve on tortillas with your favorite toppings. We like these on white corn tortillas with some mexican cheese and sliced avocado. Libby serves with a squeeze of lime.
