Chicken is a great source of lean protein, which is awesome for building and repairing muscles. The tomatoes and onions bring in some vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. Chipotle peppers not only add a smoky kick but also contain vitamins A and C. Overall, it's a pretty balanced dish, especially if you pair it with whole grains like brown rice or serve it on corn tortillas.

Great question! Traditional tinga, often made with shredded chicken, tomatoes, and spices, is packed with flavor and decent nutrition. It’s generally high in protein from the chicken and rich in vitamins from the tomatoes and peppers. Depending on how it's cooked, you might want to watch for added fats from cooking oils. Overall, it’s a tasty and relatively healthy choice!
