I have made this with cooked chicken, just boil your chicken, and pull it into pieces with your fingers, or cut it up. Instead of water, use your chicken drippings. I pour the ground beef drippings over my dogs food. You may use vegetable oil or bacon drippings, instead of avocado oil Serve with sliced avocado. tomatoes, and sour cream or guacamole. If you like it spicy, add 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Also I always serve this dish with my famous Pinto Beans.... I will add pictures, next time I prepare this dish!
