For the Tacos
Warm the Tortillas. Warm the tortillas (either in a microwave or in a heated pan) to your liking. Patty loves them warmed and slightly charred over the stovetop open flame. Be careful not to scorch or burn them if you do this. Stack the Tacos. Add the chicken tinga onto the tortillas, a couple ounces each (or spoonsful), then top with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
