Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Chicken

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until soft and translucent.

2. Sear the Chicken

Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and sear on both sides until browned.

3. Add Broth and Sauce

Pour in the chicken broth and BBQ sauce. Bring to a simmer, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

4. Shred the Chicken

Remove the chicken from the skillet and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the skillet and stir to combine with the sauce.

5. Serve

Serve the pulled chicken on buns with extra BBQ sauce if desired.
