Easiest and Most Delicious Shredded Chicken

Who doesn't like easy?! My family requests this chicken often, we mostly put it in tacos and taco bowls. It's easy, super flavorful, and you can definitely convert the recipe to a slow cooker or Instant Pot!

Shredded Chicken

2-3 lbs of boneless/skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup chicken stock

1/2-1 cup of your favorite salsa

1/2 tsp chili powder

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp smoked paprika

1/2 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp onion flakes or onion powder

4 oz. can of green chilies (hot or mild)

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Cut each chicken breast into 2-3 pieces. In a dutch oven (or large oven safe pot), heat some olive oil and sear the chicken pieces. Add in all other ingredients, bring to a boil, then place in oven. Cook for 1 1/2-2 hours until chicken is able to be shredded. Remove from oven, shred chicken and serve in tacos or taco bowls.

Recipe Tips: This recipe freezes well, so no worries if you make too much, just put it in a freezer safe container and enjoy another time!

Serve with: cauliflower rice, cabbage slaw, or Mexican rice.

Change it up by using a green salsa instead of red!
