Ingredients
1 Whole Chicken
2 Tomatoes
Half an Onion
1 Green Bell Pepper
1 Red Bell Pepper
1 Chili - I used Serannos
4 Cloves of Garlic
Chicken Stock
Olive Oil
 

Instructions
Cut the whole chicken into individual parts, with bones and skin entact. Cut the Green Bell Pepper, Half of Onion, 1 Tomato and the Chili into large chunks.
Brown the chicken pieces with olive oil in a Dutch Oven, or large skillet if you do not have one. Top chicken with Green Bell Pepper, Onion, Tomato and, Chili. Add just enough stock to cover the bottom of the Dutch Oven. You do not want to submerge the chicken much. You want just enough liquid to braise the chicken. Braise the chicken at very low heat for 60-90 minutes, until the chicken can be easily pulled apart by hand. Let the chicken rest until cool enough to handle, then shred the chicken meat off the bone. Discard braising vegetables.
Finely dice the remaining tomato, red bell pepper, and garlic. Sautee the vegetabes in olive oil until fragrant and lightly caramelized. Add shredded chicken to the tomato, pepper, and garlic mixture. Mix well.
Serve with tortillas.
