Building on the success of its Smoked Pulled Chicken, Trader Joe's new Pulled Chicken Salsa Verde is an easy way to get a tasty protein on the table without all the prep work.
Trader Joe's new Pulled Chicken Salsa Verde is a time-saving meal solution that doesn't skimp on flavor. The new product consists of boneless, skinless chicken breast that's been seasoned with a flavorful blend of salt, white pepper, and garlic and onion powders. The chicken is then slow-cooked in a savory Salsa Verde made from roasted tomatillos, green chiles, cilantro, onion, and garlic. Once tender, the meat is shredded and then packaged so it's ready to go. This means that all you need to do is heat the chicken up in the microwave or on the stovetop and you'll have fully cooked pulled chicken in minutes.
