Instructions
Prepare Chicken
- If using pre-cooked chicken (e.g. grocery store whole roasted chicken) separate breasts and remove skin. Chop up chicken until it has a fine, shredded texture.
- If using uncooked chicken, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add chicken and cook for approximately 10 minutes until breasts read 160 degrees fahrenheit. Remove chicken and let it cool completely, then chop up chicken until it has a fine, shredded texture.
