📖 Recipe Card
Rotisserie Chicken Recipes: Shredded Chicken Tacos (+More Great Meal Ideas!)
Ingredients
- 3 large chicken breasts (boneless, skinless - approximately 1 ½ pounds)
- ½ tablespoon olive oil
- ½ cup yellow onion (or white onion, minced)
- 1 teaspoon garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon chicken taco seasoning
- ½ cup salsa roja (see recipe, or your favorite brand)
(Note: 2x or 3x only changes the ingredient list)
Instructions
- Place the chicken in a large pot (cut big pieces into manageable sizes that will cook quickly) and add enough water to fully cover it. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the chicken is fall-apart tender, about 10-15 minutes. Chicken should be 165°F (74°C) before shredding.
- Remove the chicken using a slotted spoon and allow it to cool, then use two forks and pull the chicken meat into shreds.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and saute the yellow onion until tender, fragrant, and translucent, or about 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic and chicken taco seasoning, mix, and saute for an additional 30 seconds.
- Mix in the ½ cup salsa roja (or your favorite brand of salsa) until warmed through. Stir in the shredded chicken until evenly coated, then cook on low for 2-3 more minutes.
- Serve immediately with warmed tortillas or taco shells and your favorite toppings.
Notes
- Skip step 1 by using my Instant Pot shredded chicken, the perfect easy way to make tacos!
- You can use frozen chicken for this recipe. It will need to simmer for longer, so be sure to check the internal temperature of the chicken has reached 165°F (74°C) before you shred it.
- Leftover shredded chicken should be kept in an airtight container. It can be refrigerated for 3 days or frozen for 3 months. Reheat leftovers over medium heat on the stovetop with a splash of chicken stock or extra salsa to keep it from drying out.
