Anyway, back to why I'm a believer. One of my boards is called "household tips." I love that people have somehow figured out all these shortcuts, miracle solutions, and easy fixes and then put them on the internet. When I saw this pin about shredding chicken, I just knew I had to try it. Guess what!?! It totally worked! This could be a life changer, folks. I don't know how much time I've spent shredding chicken over the years, but those days are gone! Here's what I did:
To cook the chicken:
1. Cover the bottom of a 9x13" pan with water then add a little vegetable oil.
2. Place 4 rinsed boneless skinless chicken breasts in the pan.
3. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
4. Bake at ~375 F for 30 minutes.
5. Let cool about 10 minutes.
To shred the chicken (this is the fun part):
1. Place 2-3 warm chicken breasts in your KitchenAid mixer with the normal mixing paddle
2. Turn to speed 4 for about 5 seconds
3. Turn to speed 6 for about 5 seconds
4. DONE!! Perfectly shredded chicken and perfectly clean hands!!
I couldn't believe it actually worked and that it was so easy. I will never shred chicken by hand again!

I did the shredded chicken trick the other day too and it was SO GREAT!!!! I've never baked my chicken to cook it, but that's good to know. I usually just throw it in a covered pan on the stove top on medium heat for a while... maybe turn it once in there. But yeah, the Kitchen Aid works so well! I have a white chicken enchilada recipe pinned that's super yummy. You'd have to use corn tortillas, though :)
