Author's Notes

This recipe yields 10-12 tacos.

Refrigerate any leftover pulled pork in a vacuum-sealed bag or freezer Ziploc bag (pressing all the air out) for up to 3-5 days. Frozen pulled pork will last for up to 2 months in a freezer. Write the name and date on your freezer bags so you can keep track.

To bake chicken in the oven: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line baking pan with non-stick foil. Add chicken in a single layer. Bake 14 to 16 minutes (for small/medium breasts that are about 5-6 oz), 16 to 20 minutes (for medium/large breasts that are 7 to 9 oz), or 20 to 25 minutes (for larger breasts), or until chicken is cooked to 160 degrees F (70 degrees C) on an instant-read thermometer, then remove from oven and cover with foil, let rest for 10 minutes to continue to cook to 165 degrees (75 degrees C).
