Prep Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 25 minute Resting Time: 5 minutes Total Time: 15 minutes Difficulty Level: Easy Recipe Makes: 2 Servings
1.5 pounds of chicken breasts 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning 2 cups chicken broth 2 tablespoons olive oil Sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
Sprinkle Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper evenly on both sides of the chicken fillets.
Heat olive oil in a cast-iron pot over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken fillets for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden-brown.
Add chicken broth to the pot, reduce heat to medium, and cover with a lid. Simmer for 25 minutes.
Transfer the cooked chicken to a large mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer on low or two forks to shred the chicken to your preferred texture.
Place the shredded chicken on a plate, drizzle with the cooked broth for extra flavor, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
To keep chicken moist, use a meat thermometer and remove it from heat at 165°F (75°C). Let it rest for a few minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
