Instructions
- Start by mixing mayo, sour cream, chopped onion, jalape , cilantro, cumin, salt, and pepper right in a big bowl. Get all those flavors blending before adding the chicken.
- Add the cooked and shredded chicken breast on top. Use a fork or two to break up the chicken if it27s chunky. Then fold everything gently so every shred is coated nicely.
- Adjust seasoning to taste. Add more salt or pepper if needed. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes to let flavors mingle.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature. Enjoy as is, on taco shells, in sandwiches, or with chips.
Notes
Keep leftovers sealed tight; flavors deepen overnight. Add extra jalape or fresh lime if you desire more heat and brightness.
