one sliced onion
2 minced garlic cloves
one tomato chopped in a can
2 to 3 chopped chipotle chiles in adobo sauce
1 tablespoon of chipotle chiles in adobo sauce

HOW TO PREP
Heat a skillet with a vegetable oil of choice then go ahead to with your chicken on medium heat. Once it is cooked on both sides, make sure both sides are brown, set it aside. This will take 4-5 minutes.

Shred the chicken using a fork and add it to your sauce. Let it simmer for 3-5 minutes. Spread a teaspoon of the chicken tinga mixture on top of a tostada shell. Add your chosen garnishes, such as a squeeze of lime juice, shredded lettuce, cubed avocado, crumbled queso fresco, and chopped cilantro.
