Using a stand mixer
If using a stand mixer, place the cooked chicken in the mixer bowl. Lock the tilt-head down (if applicable) and set the mixer to speed 2. Shred the chicken for about 15 seconds until finely shredded. For extra moisture, add some of the remaining liquid from the pan to the shredded chicken and toss to combine. Use the shredded chicken immediately in your favorite recipes, such as tacos, chicken chili, or shredded barbecue. Alternatively, allow the chicken to cool completely before storing it in freezer-safe containers for future use. Enjoy!
