Thursday Tip: Shredding Chicken

Posted by chickiepea on April 5, 2012 · Leave a Comment 

Can’t remember where I saw this… probably Pinterest!, but I used it last night with leftover chicken and it worked like a charm.  I bet it would work on pot-roast as well.

Very short and sweet:

Take cooked chicken breasts and put them in the Kitchen Aid mixer with the paddle attachment (a food processor with the mixing paddle- not the blade- would probably work too.)   Turn it on a low speed and the chicken shreds perfectly and almost instantly!

We used our chicken in wraps, but this would be perfect for the base of a chicken salad, burritos, etc.
