Chicken tinga is originally from the state of Puebla, but this recipe is for the version that is the most popular throughout all of Mexico. I love to eat this tinga as a topping for corn tostadas, but it can also be used as a taco filling, as well as a dish you can serve with a side of rice and a salad. It is also a popular stuffing for fried corn empanadas and a topping for sopes.
