Instructions
- To brew the Crio Bru, add the entire contents of the 4 oz bag of Crio Bru Ghana French Roast to a french press. Add 1.5 cups of boiling water and let that brew for 8 minutes.
- While the Crio Bru is brewing, add olive oil to a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and saute until translucent – approximately 5 to 7 minutes.
- Stir the Crio Bru and allow to brew for 2 more minutes.
- Add garlic, chipotle powder, chili powder, cinnamon, tomato paste, raisins and diced tomatoes to your pot of onions and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Pour the onion and spice mixture into a blender and add almond butter, Crio Bru, and chicken broth. Puree until smooth.
- Return the mixture to the pot over medium heat. Gently simmer for 15 minutes to allow all of the flavors to combine, stirring occasionally.
- If you’re looking for an even deeper chocolate flavor, you can add unsweetened chocolate at this point and stir until melted.
- Add shredded chicken and stir until heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve with tortillas and garnish with limes, avocado and cilantro.
