Instructions

Prep
1

Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Heat Guide for Step 3: 1/8 tsp mild, 1/4 tsp medium, 1/2 tsp spicy and 1 tsp extra-spicy! Core, then cut poblano into 1/4-inch pieces, removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping poblanos!) Roughly chop cilantro. Zest lime, then cut remaining lime into wedges. Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then cut into 1/4-inch strips. Season with half the Mexican Seasoning, salt and pepper.

Start chicken
2

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then chicken. Cook until golden-brown, 2-3 min per side. (NOTE: Chicken will finish cooking in step 3.)

Make chicken tinga
3

Add garlic puree, poblanos, crushed tomatoes, remaining Mexican Seasoning, 1 tsp sugar, 1/4 cup water (dbl both for 4 ppl) and 1/2 tsp chipotle powder to the pan with chicken. (NOTE: Reference heat guide.) Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium. Simmer until sauce is thickened and chicken is cooked through, 10-12 min.**

Make lime mayo
4

While chicken cooks, add lime zest, mayo and 1 tbsp water (dbl for 4 ppl) to a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.

Warm tortillas
5

Wrap tortillas in paper towels. Microwave until tortillas are warm and flexible, 1 min. (NOTE: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm tortillas!)

Finish and serve
6

Divide tortillas between plates. Top with chicken tinga and lime mayo. Sprinkle feta and cilantro over top. Squeeze over a lime wedge, if desired.
