Chicken Tinga Tacos

If there’s one thing I love, it’s tacos, and these Chicken Tinga Tacos tick all the boxes! They’re spicy, but not face-meltingly spicy, and the smoky flavor of the sauce is just so good! Just like classic tinga but in a hand-held taco– yum!

If you love classic chicken tinga, I think you’re gonna love these hand-held chicken tinga tacos! All that great flavor in a portable form! This recipe is always on rotation at my house. It’s one that both my kids and husband all love. Plus it has under 10 ingredients. A huge win.
