Mammy's Chicken or Turkey Barbecue image

This is a Pennsylvania Dutch-type recipe from my Mammy and my mother. I think I may have to tweak this a little bit but I hope this works for you! Note: This Barbecue does not have any "sauce" but has more of a broth surrounding tender chicken.

Time 1h5m

Yield 1-2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 boneless skinless chicken breasts or 1 turkey breast
water, to cover
salt, to taste
chicken bouillon (optional)
pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Place your chicken (or turkey) in a pot and just cover with water.
  • If you wish to add chicken bullion, do so at this point, otherwise, save any salt until the end or less your chicken may not be as tender.
  • Bring to the boil over high heat, lower heat and simmer until the chicken is fully cooked, tender and falling apart, much like a pulled pork sandwich.
  • Pull chicken apart into"strings", using two forks and return to broth.
  • Add salt to taste.
  • Serve, using a slotted spoon, on white rolls, as a hot sandwich.
  • I believe this could be made with leftover turkey, white and dark meat chicken or turkey or any other number of ways.
  • This is traditionally a very very plain dish/sandwich so I guess it's good for children if you leave out a lot of the salt.
