NOTES : MICROWAVE: If you do not have any leftover cooked chicken on hand, poach some chicken in the microwave. In a microwave-safe casserole, combine 2 boneless chicken breasts (about 1 pound) with 1/2 cup of water or reduced-sodium chicken broth. Cover; microwave on HIGH for about 17 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes. Proceed as recipe directs.
COOKING TIPS: To shred chicken, start with leftover or freshly cooked chicken that is cooled, skinned, and boned. Using a fork, pull the meat apart into long shreds.
*Pickapepper sauce is a zesty condiment made from pureed red chilies, vinegar, and seasonings. You'll find it in the supermarket condiment section.
