  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided

Notes

Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave. Make-Ahead Tip: The chicken can be cooked and shredded ahead of time, then reheated and crisped up in a skillet before serving. Variations: For extra veggies, add zucchini or mushrooms during the sauté step. Substitute chicken thighs for breasts for more flavor and moisture. Serving Suggestion: Serve as a taco filling in lettuce cups, over a baked sweet potato, or as a topping for a Whole30-compliant salad.
