Pulled chicken fajitas.

I saw the recipe online in GF and immediately wanted to try. Pulled pork is nice, but takes long to make, plus it makes me feel a bit guilty- what’s the point in sweating on the floor with Chodakowska and then munching on a pig.

Chicken was fun to make and not too long. I had boneless thighs, which I seasoned and rubbed with chipotle paste.  Then made a marinade with more chipotle, some bbq sauce, small carton of passata, some chopped shallot and a splash of water.  My chicken was placed in a baking dish all nice and cosy,  covered with marinade and it wnet to the oven for an hour in 160 degrees, under alu foil.  After an hour the foil went and the temperature up to 200 for another 20 minutes.  The sauce reduced nicely, chicken fell apart under the forks, mixed with the sauce was excellent.

Served with coleslaw and an avocado salsa- by the recipe too, but I found it too strong, it nearly killed the chicken in that tortilla. Guacamole would have been better I think. But still very pleased with the whole thing.
