Ingredients
Directions
11 STEPS
1
Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap or in a disposable plastic bag. Pound them to a mostly even thickness using a meat mallet (smooth side), rolling pin, or empty wine bottle.
2
Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
3
Heat the olive oil in a skillet (with a lid) over medium heat.
4
Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts to the pan and cook until browned, approximately 3 to 4 minutes.
5
Flip the chicken breasts and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until browned.
6
Pour the chicken broth into the pan, cover, and cook for 5 to 8 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the breasts reads 165°F.
7
Remove the skillet from heat and let the chicken cool for 5 minutes.
8
Transfer the chicken breasts to a stand mixer.
9
Using the paddle attachment, set the mixer to low, working up to medium, and process the chicken until mostly shredded.
10
Be careful not to over-process. Manually pull apart any remaining larger pieces.
11
Your tender, succulent shredded chicken is now ready to be used in any recipe you wish.

Wholesome Cook
Smoky Bacon and Vegetable Pulled Chicken
The pulled chicken stew can be enjoyed with shavings of Manchego cheese or Parmesan and a side of some crusty sourdough. You can serve it with pasta or rice as well, and if you prefer. It's freezer friendly so you can double the recipe - if using a slow cooker - eat half and freeze half for later.
