## Instructions

1. Tenderize the chicken breasts using a meat tenderizer to break up connective tissue, help it cook evenly, and allow marinade to penetrate faster.
2. Season both sides of the tenderized chicken generously with salt, pepper, and Kinder's Carne Asada seasoning.
3. Rub the seasoning into the chicken to ensure it adheres well.
4. Place the seasoned chicken into a Ziploc bag.
5. Add a little olive oil to the bag with the chicken.

8. Heat a pan to medium heat.
9. Place the marinated chicken breasts into the hot pan to sear.
10. Cook the chicken for 5 minutes per side.
11. Remove the chicken from the heat, put a lid on the pan, and let it sit for 10 minutes to finish cooking and retain juiciness.
12. Place the fully cooked chicken into a KitchenAid mixer to shred it.
13. Transfer the shredded chicken back into the pan to absorb all the cooking sauce.
14. Place the chicken on the bottom of a bowl.
15. Add cheese as a topping.
16. Add chopped tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, and bell peppers (similar to pico de gallo ingredients).
