Notes

There are so many ways to serve this chicken! You can use it as a taco filling and just add in your desired toppings. I like to serve it over rice and black beans for a yummy taco bowl. Add it to a salad. You choose...I typically like to double up the recipe and have leftovers in the fridge as it reheats really well.
