Sarahs Easy Shredded Chicken Taco Filling Recipe

  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced onion
  • 1 pinch ground cumin
  • 1 pinch chili powder
  • 1/4 cup tomato sauce

  2. Transfer chicken breasts to a bowl, allow to cool, and shred the chicken meat with 2 forks.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a small non-stick saucepan over medium heat, and cook and stir onion until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Mix in the shredded chicken, cumin, chili powder, and tomato sauce; bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat to low and simmer until chicken is hot and the flavors have blended, about 3 minutes.
