Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Chicken

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and brown on both sides for about 5 minutes.

2

Add Liquid

Add water to the skillet and cover it. Let it simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.

3

Shred the Chicken

Remove the chicken from the skillet and place it on a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

4

Mix with BBQ Sauce

Return the shredded chicken to the skillet. Pour in the BBQ sauce and stir to combine. Let it cook for an additional 5 minutes on low heat to heat through.

5

Serve

Serve the BBQ pulled chicken in sandwiches, on salads, or with sides of your choice.
