Categories: Cklive06
Yield: 4 servings

2 lg Ripe; red tomatoes
3 Canned chile chipotles en
-adobo
1/4 c Water or chicken stock
1/3 c Vegetable oil
4 lg Garlic cloves; finely
-chopped
1 lg Onion - (or 2 medium);

Into half-moons -; (abt 2
-cups)
2 ts Ground cumin
1 ts Freshly-grated nutmeg
6 c Shredded cooked chicken
(or use any other cooked
-meat)
Salt; to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper;
-to taste

Heat a griddle or cast-iron skillet over high heat until a drop of water
sizzles on contact. Roast the tomatoes, turning several times, until
blackened on all sides. Let sit until cool enough to touch; working over a
bowl to catch any juices, peel off the black skin. Seed the tomatoes, chop
the flesh roughly, and set aside. In a blender or food processor fitted
with the steel blade, puree the chipotle chiles and the sauce that clings
to them with the water or stock. Set aside. In a large skillet heat oil
over high heat until very hot but not quite smoking. Add the garlic and
onion and cook, stirring, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, cumin, nutmeg,
and pureed chipotles and cook, stirring, another 3 minutes. Reduce the heat
to medium, add the shredded meat, and simmer, uncovered, until most of the
liquid has evaporated, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and
serve at once. This recipe yields 4 servings as a main dish, more as a
filling for tacos.
