Ingredients
12 oz of frozen skinless chicken tenderloins- about 6 tenderloins (I used Tyson)1 cup water1 cup So Delicious coconut milk1 package of Nueva Cocina Taco Fresco seasoning and veggie mix. (No MSG or preservatives)1/2 tsp sugar12 LaBanderita corn tortillas
Directions
In a large sauce pan bring water, coconut milk, and sugar to a slight boil.
Add chicken, cover and cook on medium until the chicken is done...about 30-40 mins. (or you can put everything in a slow cooker and cook for 4 hours)
Remove chicken and shred with a fork, then place back in sauce pan and simmer until only a nice sauce remains (another 5-10 minutes)

Heat tortillas on a hot skillet and fill with chicken tinga. (you can add a little canola oil and salt to the tortillas as you heat them, but the chicken is so rich you really don't need to)

Serving Size: about 2 tortillas filled with shredded chicken

Number of Servings: 6

    I love this. I served it over rice. I don't care for corn tortillas. - 10/7/12
