Pulled Chicken BBQ Sandwich
Introduction
This low-calorie, low-fat version of the classic BBQ sandwich will be a new family favorite!
Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
dash of salt and pepper
2/3 cup BBQ sauce
6 whole wheat hamburger buns
dash of salt and pepper
2/3 cup BBQ sauce
6 whole wheat hamburger buns
Directions
Place chicken breasts, along with salt and pepper to taste, in a large pot of water and boil until fully cooked through. (Time will vary depending on whether you are using fresh or frozen chicken.)
Once the chicken is cooked, use a fork to pull the meat apart so it is thickly shredded. (Shredding too finely will cause the sandwich to become mushy once sauce is added.) Place pulled chicken in a large bowl.
Add a half bottle (approx. 2/3 cup) of BBQ sauce. Toss until chicken is coated.
Distribute chicken evenly onto buns. You may choose to toast the buns first, or add toppings like lettuce or red onion to the mixture, or spread a small amount of the sauce right onto the bun before assembling. This delicious alternative to the classic bbq sandwich will be a hit any way you serve it!
