Ingredients
  • 1 pound chicken (I usually like using chicken breast but you can use thighs or whole chicken)
  • Water or broth, enough to cover the chicken
  • Pinch of salt if using water
Instructions
  1. In a pot, heat water or broth. Add chicken pieces and make sure they get submerged under water or broth.
  2. Bring it to a boil and let it simmer for 5-10 minutes or until chicken turns pale white inside and out.
  3. That means it;s fully cooked but you don't want to overdo the simmering part too or it will leave you with chewy chicken.
  4. Take it out. Strain and using two forks shred the meat.
  5. Store once cooled in ziplock bags or airtight containers.
  6. I like to write the date on top as well so I know when I made it.
  7. It lasts for 2-3 days in refrigerator and upto 1-2 months in freezer.
