Instructions
- Gather Ingredients: Start by gathering everything you’ll need—the sooner everything is out, the quicker you’ll be eating.
- Shred the Chicken: Remove the skin and shred the rotisserie chicken into bite-sized pieces.
- Sauté the Veggies: Heat a tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions and bell peppers. Sauté until soft and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Add cumin, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Combine: Stir in the shredded chicken and mix well to ensure it’s warmed through and coated in those delicious spices.
