How to Shred Chicken in Less than 3 minutes

How to Shred Chicken in Less than 3 minutes, especially when your chicken is steaming hot.

I buy a lot of chicken in bulk.  It’s a great way for me to save time and money.   What I’ll do is cook most of my chicken at once, this way when I go to make dinner I can make it quickly.   Having shredded chicken on hand only takes a short time to defrost it in the microwave and I can usually have dinner prepared in less than 20 minutes.

I used to shred my chicken by hand but had to wait for the chicken to cool.  Then I shredding chicken using a fork and when you are shredding 2-3 chicken breast at a time, it takes a while.    Until I discovered that I can shred chicken using my kitchen aid mixer and a dough hook.

I can now take extremely hot chicken throw it in my mixer and in less than 3 minutes my chicken is shredded.

Check out the video I made on how to shred chicken in less than 3 minutes.

This method is definitely a life saver in the kitchen.  Next time you go to shred chicken be sure to get out your mixer and dough hook.
