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 and translucent.
  2. Season chicken breasts with paprika, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Coat evenly.
  3. Push onion/garlic aside; add chicken to skillet. Cook 4-5 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through.
  4. Pour in chicken broth and lime juice. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat, cover, and simmer 15-20 minutes, or until chicken is tender and easily shreds.
  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 seasoning blend and substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth or water, if desired.

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!
