Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Add chicken breasts to the pot, season with salt and black pepper. Pour in enough water to cover the chicken. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

  3. 3

    Shred the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the pot and let it cool slightly. Shred the chicken using two forks.

  4. 4

    Mix with BBQ Sauce

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken with BBQ sauce. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Toast the buns if desired. Pile the BBQ pulled chicken onto each bun, top with pickles and shredded cheddar cheese. Serve warm.
