Ingredients
2 lbs Shredded chicken (rotisserie or poached)
4 tbsp Salted grass-fed butter
4 cloves Garlic, minced
2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
0.5 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat until completely liquefied.
Add the finely minced garlic to the melted butter and stir constantly for one minute until fragrant.
Add the shredded chicken to the skillet.
Mix thoroughly so the chicken is evenly coated in the garlic butter sauce.
Sprinkle the fresh parsley over the mixture and cook for five minutes to heat the chicken through.
Season with salt and pepper immediately before serving.
Notes
Use chicken thighs for extra fat and flavor if preferred. Keep heat low when sautéing garlic to prevent burning. Add a squeeze of lemon juice at the end for brightness.
