Poached and shredded chicken that is perfectly tender and so versatile, all done in 25 minutes, yes please.

Ingredients

Instructions

Trim any fat or sinewy bits of the chicken
Place chicken breasts in a pot of boiling water, let boil for 2 minutes then turn off the heat, cover with a lid and let sit for 22 minutes (you can let sit longer if needed but after a while it can start to toughen up)
While hot, place drained chicken in a mixing bowl and using old school beaters, beat the chicken for 1 minute, it will shred very easily into perfectly tender shredded pieces - voilà!
