Notes: You can use canned chicken or I like to cook up a chicken breast and a half with some chicken seasoning and tomatoes (to help get them tender). Then I shred the chicken myself and measure out two cups (which is about a breast and a half).
It's very fast to make (if the chicken has already been cooked or you use canned) and it produces about 5 servings (1 1/4 c. per serving).
