Poached Chicken Recipe
An easy, step-by-step tutorial that teaches you how to make Poached Chicken! Perfect for salads, enchiladas, and dips!
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Instructions
- Simmer: Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Let simmer 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
- Shred: Remove from pot and let cool slightly. Shred with two forks.
- Serve: Use in your favorite recipe (we love our chicken salad with grapes)!
Notes
- Storage: store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Chicken Thighs: you can easily use chicken thighs (I would recommend boneless chicken thighs) instead of chicken breasts. It may take a little less time for these to cook through.
- Uses: use for chicken dip (try this bbq chicken dip) or salads (try this Greek Yogurt Chicken Salad).
