Apple Chipotle Shredded Chicken
- 1 roasting chicken (about 3 lbs)
- adobo seasoning
- 2 cups water
- 1 (6 ounce) can chipotle chiles in adobo
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 14 cup apple juice
- 1 cup shredded mexican cheese
- Place chicken in crock pot, and sprinkle liberally with adobo seasoning.
- Cover with water.
- Cook chicken on low for 8 hours or overnight.
- Shred and remove bones, skin, etc.
- On the stovetop, add chicken with the rest of the ingredients.
- For a mild spice, which is how I prepared it, use JUST 2 tbl of the SAUCE from the peppers.
- To make it hotter, use more sauce and less tomato paste, or puree the peppers and use them as well.
- Season with more adobo seasoning to taste.
- Stir until blended and cook until juice is absorbed.
- Serve on torillas with rice as a side.
- Enjoy!
