Shredded Chicken
Servings 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb cooked chicken
Instructions
Fork Method
- Place cooked chicken onto a sturdy cutting board and grab two clean forks.
- Stick the forks into the chicken and pull them in different directions to pull the meat apart into "strands". Keep pulling until all of the meat is in smaller pieces.
- If there are some large chunks, use both forks in the same motion to shred the chunks.
Electric Mixer Method
- Add chicken to the bowl of a stand mixer or a large mixing bowl. If you are using a stand mixer, attach the paddle attachment.
- Start the mixer on low speed and slowly up the speed of the mixer as need. Run the mixer until all of the meat is shredded.
By Hand Method
- Grab one chicken breast at a time and carefully pull it apart. Start at one end and pull it in an downward and outward motion to pull apart the strands of meat.
- Place the meat into a bowl or on a plate, or into a container to store for later!
