    Shredded Chicken for Enchiladas, Tostadas, Tacos , This is an authentic filling used for Mexican dishes such as: enchiladas, tostadas and tacos You can easily double the recipe, as it freezes well I always have some on hand in the freezer Use this in place of plain shredded chicken; and it will kick an average Mexican recipe up a notch (IMHO) COOK’S NOTES: 1 whole frying chicken, giblets and excess fat removed, can be used instead of boneless chicken breasts , Can this sauce be frozen without damaging the taste or texture? Thanks
