Delicious! Fabulous for uni lunches! I added a random squeeze of Japanese mayo for a creamy twist! Yummo!
My husband made this for dinner this evening and it was delicious! I’ve been told to eat low FODMAP so we skipped the onion and garlic powder out of the spice mix but it didn’t lack any flavour as a result.
So simple but so tasty – another great recipe! Thx Nik ☺
Great recipe. Love having it in the fridge for delicious weekend lunches. Great on wraps or in salads.
Could you somehow use it and turn into a nacho’s meal???
Knock out ! Loved it. Perfect for school lunches.
So simple and yet so amazingly tasty! I can’t believe I haven’t made this before now! Just love it thank you Nik xx
Love this! Such a simple quick and easy meal that is so tasty!
So full of flavor! Delicious in wraps with salad and your mayo.
Shredded Mexican chicken was a hit! Just the right amount of spice for the kidlets, with a little extra spice added for the adults. Tasty mixed with a ‘Mexican salad’ of lettuce, tomatoes, capsicum, cheese, avocado, salsa and sour cream. Low carb too! A new one to add to the rotation of dinners in our house. Thanks Nik!
Lovely and moist – a hit with the fussy eaters – half of us have it wrapped in lettuce leaves and the others with in a wrap!
I am so in love with this. I had been eating packaged ham for work lunches as it is easy to grab in the morning, but the sugar and nitrate in it is a worry. Now I cook this Mexican chicken up on a Monday and put in containers with salad for my work lunches for rest of the week, so yum and healthy. Thanks Nik!
Mexican shredded chicken and salad wraps (your wraps) for lunch; yum!!
Fabulous! Super easy to make. Served with tortillas, rice, black beans, guacamole and sour cream. Has become a regular meal in our house. Highly recommend.
Where did you find black beans?
Woolworths and Coles sell them in the Mexican isle
Great recipe. I reduced the water down and made a sauce, its smelt too great to throw out. Then mixed the shedded chicken in it. yummo
Love this recipe, was a big hit with my son and his mates and very easy to make. Will be making again for portions for the freezer for use in school lunches.
Thanks for the creation.
How did this freeze? I know it was ages ago hahah
Just made this tonight for my family to have on wraps with salad, what a hit. Fussy teenage eaters loved it !!!
the best snack on a baby cos lettuce leaf topped with avo & sour cream 🙂
Made this tonight. It is fantastic and so easy to make. Thank you 🙂
Tasty moist chicken. Will be great with a side salad, in wraps/ sandwiches. Another winner!
I made this last night and my family went nuts. What a hit! We will be using this recipe again and again. Many thanks.
