Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Tinga Chicken
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and sauté until translucent.

Mix Shredded Chicken with Sauce
Return the shredded chicken to the skillet and mix it with the sauce. Let it cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Prepare the Salsa
In a bowl, combine diced tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix well.
Assemble the Tacos
