Shredded chicken

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
Okay, so I feel a little stupid asking this, because I'm generally a pretty confident cook, but I have a question about shredded chicken. Roasted, shredded chicken is often called for in recipes (burritos, soups, etc). I rarely have any leftovers sitting around. Instead, I end up subbing in sauteed chunks of chicken breast or thigh, but the texture isn't the same. How can I get the nice shreddy texture from boneless meat?

I put chicken breasts in the crockpot, but if I'm in a hurry I boil it on the stove.

I season and roast boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the oven. They take very little time... 20 minutes for thinner, 30 minutes for thicker breasts at 350*F/180*C.
