SUPER EASY STOVE TOP PULLED CHICKEN


This chicken recipe is so quick and easy to prepare.  You just combine all the ingredients, bring to a simmer, cover tightly and put the timer on for 45 minutes.  Voila, dinner is served. I like it served in a brioche bun topped with coleslaw.

INGREDIENTS:

1.7 kg of boneless, skinless chicken thighs
3 tablespoons of olive oil
3 minced garlic cloves
1 tablespoon of smoked paprika
1 teaspoon of cayenne or more depending on your taste buds
1 1/2 cups of your favourite barbecue sauce

 METHOD:

In a large pot, heat oil over medium high heat and saute the minced garlic for 30 seconds.  Add in the rest of the ingredients including the chicken and reduce heat to medium low. Bring to a simmer and then cover with a tight fitting lid.  Simmer for 45 minutes. Or until the chicken is fully cooked and pulls apart easily with two forks. 

Serve over warm brioche hamburger buns topped with your favourite traditional coleslaw.

TIPS:
Leftovers freeze well.
