What is better than saucy, smoky, delicious chicken tinga for tacos and bowls and beyond?

Answer: SHEET PAN chicken tinga that is just maaade for meal prep.

This chicken tinga is juicy and delicious, brain-less, totally hands-off (hello sheet pan), generously saucy, and paired with some buddies like roasty bell peppers and quinoa and black beans to round it out into a meal that tastes like my favorite tacos of all time and yet is practically the same as a salad.

These chicken tinga tacos remain, to this day, one of my favorite taco recipes ever. Which is saying a lot. I love tacos. I dream of tacos. I eat a LOT of tacos.

So this week’s meal prep situation is my solution to the WANTS TO EAT TACOS BUT WANTS TO ALSO BE HEALTHY dilemma.

Here we go.

First, throw the peppers and chicken on a sheet pan. Roast it up.

Yes, you are a meal prep genius, and yes, you need to be grammin’ this.

While it’s roasting, make your sauce, which I don’t have a picture of. Just imagine a sizzling pan of onion, garlic, oil, tomato, chipotle, etc.

And then, because I am lazy (or smart?) I just shred that chicken right on the sheet pan and pour my sauce right on there.

Done! Chicken Tinga Meal Prep. Made on a sheet pan.

You will likely have a little extra sauce which has never, in the history of ever, been a problem for me. I’m confident you can find some extra space in your bowls for that lil spoonful of chipotle goodness.
