                                          • Place chicken in tilt skillet or large stock pot. Add enough water to cover by 1 inch.
                                            Critical Control Point: Bring to simmer and cook gently for about 20 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165 °F or higher for 15 seconds.
                                          • Remove chicken from water. Save water and set aside. Clean tilt skillet or stock pot.
                                          • Cut chicken into 1 inch pieces, then shred by hand. Chicken can be cooked and chilled before shredding.
                                            Critical Control Point: Chill on sheet pans or in hotel pans with no more than 2 inch depth of food. Cool to 70 °F within 2 hours and 40 °F or lower within 4 hours.
                                          • Combine chipotle peppers, garlic, tomato paste, oregano, pepper, salt, and 1 cup of reserved chicken cooking water from step 2 in a blender. Blend until smooth. (Alternatively, combine ingredients in sauce pot or Cambro container and blend using a stick blender.)
                                          • Add oil to preheated tilt skillet or large stock pot.
                                          • Add onions to hot oil and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
                                          • Add the chipotle sauce from blender, crushed tomatoes, and remaining chicken cooking water (5 cups for 50 servings, 11 cups for 100 servings) and bring to a simmer.
                                          • Add shredded chicken and stir to coat. Simmer for 20 minutes until sauce reduces to almost dry and coats the chicken.
                                            Critical Control Point: Hold for hot service at 135 °F or higher, or chill for later use in pans with no more than 2 inch depth of food. Cool to 70 °F within 2 hours and 40 °F or lower within 4 hours. Reheat to a minimum of 165 °F.
                                          • Portion with 8 oz spoodle (1 cup).
                                            Serve over ½ cup rice (white or brown) or with a whole-grain tortilla.
