danielle says
sounds delish!!!! Which chicken are you trying?
christine rancourt says
I tried this last night. It was really good. I actually sped it up a little bit and pre cooked (boiled) the thighs for abt 30 minutes in water and I boiled the chicken breasts until they were cooked. I shredded the breasts and threw the chicken in with the thighs and it turned out great! I look forward to trying more of your recipes. Thank you!

Instead of boiling meat how about baking or roasting in the oven? Boiling it is just so unappetizing!
danielle says
Boiling????
