Recipe Tips

Shredding Chicken - We recommend shredding chicken with a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Thickening Sauce - To thicken the sauce, add in a cornstarch slurry this makes it delicious when served over rice.

Variations

Change Chicken - Feel free to make this recipe with boneless skinless chicken thighs or chicken tenders. You can even make with bone-in chicken if you prefer.
Seasoning - You can also make the sauce mixture with different ingredients. Add in honey, or instead of soy sauce use tamari or apple cider vinegar.
Vegetables - Feel free to add in vegetables to cook with the chicken. We love the addition of diced bell peppers.
