I just pour a bottle of ranch dressing over the chicken for some subtle flavour
I made this today and it came out perfect and very tasty! Thanks for a great recipe!
Easiest recipe and tasty!
This is such a great idea and simple to prepare. Wraps, sandwiches and many more possibilities.
Such an easy recipe, made this for my work lunches. Great recipe base that gives you the opportunity to add other flavours also xx
Would this be suitable to freeze?
Yes Rose I freeze in portions 🙂
Delicious……what ingredients would you suggest for coconut poached chicken?
Did this today so I could make fried rice tomorrow. Only did two chicken breasts and put it in my baby slow cooker and omg yum!!!I often buy a bbq chop and shred leftovers for fried rice but the poached chicken was more tender and nowhere near as dry.
This recipe saved me and was the basis of my sons diet whilst he was body building – so simple and easy – thank you
Love this recipe! Easy to make, great for lunches and freezes well ?
This was absolutely delicious. To shred I chopped into a few chunks then placed in my stand mixer. Came out beautifully
the main way I cook chicken these days with various spices n such. then shred it.
another one I make regularly.
Great recipe! I sliced the cooled breast thinly and marinate overnight in salad dressing and make chicken salad for my family” s work lunches. They loved it! Thank you, Paulene!
