How to Make Barbecue Pulled Chicken Sandwiches
- Heat chicken broth in a shallow pan over medium-low heat until simmering.
- Add chicken breasts to the simmering broth.
- Poach chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
- Remove chicken from pan and set aside to cool slightly.
- Reserve 1 cup of the chicken broth for the sauce; discard the rest.
- In a large bowl, whisk together ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour the reserved chicken broth into a saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Add the BBQ sauce mixture to the simmering broth.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Once the chicken is cool enough to handle, shred it into strips using two forks.
- Add the shredded chicken to the simmering sauce.
- Stir in the all-purpose flour.
- Continue to simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Serve the pulled chicken on lightly toasted onion rolls. Add your favorite BBQ toppings (coleslaw, pickles, etc.) and enjoy!
