When I make this shredded chicken there is nothing left over

Let’s Make Some Magic!

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté diced onion and minced garlic until fragrant.
  2. Season chicken breasts with paprika, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Coat evenly.
  3. Add chicken to the skillet and cook 4-5 minutes per side, until browned.
  4. Pour in chicken broth and lime juice. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer 15-20 minutes, or until tender.
  5. Remove chicken and shred with two forks. Return to skillet, mixing with juices. Simmer 5 more minutes.
  6. Garnish with cilantro. Enjoy!

Keto & Low-Carb Options

For a keto or low-carb version, skip the sautéed onion and garlic, use a keto-friendly spice blend, and substitute chicken broth with water or vegetable broth.

Pro Tips for Perfect Chicken

  • Add smoked paprika for extra depth of flavor.
  • Customize seasonings to your liking! Cayenne for heat, oregano for a Mediterranean twist.
  • Use a slow cooker: Combine all ingredients and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
  • Double the recipe and freeze leftovers for quick meals later.
