Ingredients
- 1-2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breast
- water
Instructions
- Trim any undesired fat from the chicken breast and place it in a large pot. Add water to the pot, enough to completely cover the chicken.
- Boil the chicken on medium-high heat until cooked through and no longer pink, approximately 15-25 minutes depending on the amount of chicken you have to boil. The internal temperature should read 165 degrees Fahrenheit with a meat thermometer when the chicken is cooked through.
- Remove the chicken from the water and place in a large bowl. Using a hand mixer or forks, shred the chicken until completely shredded.
Notes
- Use a hand mixer to easily shred the chicken. Place chicken in a large bowl to prevent the chicken from flying everywhere.
