SHREDDED BBQ CHICKEN (STOVETOP)

  • 1 ½ cups BBQ sauce
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 kg boneless skinless chicken breasts

In a large pot, stir together the barbecue sauce, water, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, and bring to a simmer.
Add in the chicken breasts, cover, and simmer for 12 – 15 minutes or until the chicken reads 165 ºC.
Remove the chicken from the pot, leaving the sauce in the pot, and shred it with two forks into bite sized pieces.
Transfer back to the pot and toss with the sauce.
Chicken cooking time will vary greatly depending on the size of your chicken breasts.
Check often and cook until the thickest part of the chicken reads 165 ºC with a meat thermometer
