Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 teaspoons salt, plus more to taste
2 teaspoons black peppercorn
½ medium white onion, halved
½ medium white onion, diced
5 cloves garlic, divided, 4 whole and 1 minced
2 bay leaves
6 cups water
1 tablespoon oil
1 stalk celery, diced
1 stalk celery, thinly sliced
⅔ cup hot sauce
½ cup chicken broth
4 large leaves romaine lettuce
1 carrot, shredded
½ cup blue cheese dressing

Steps:

  • Place chicken breasts, 2 teaspoons of salt, peppercorns, onion quarters, garlic cloves, bay leaves, and water in a large pot.
  • Cover the pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  • Once the water is simmering, cook for 10 minutes, until the chicken registers 165°F (74°C) when pierced with an instant-read thermometer.
  • Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and reserve at least ½ cup (120 ml) of the cooking liquid to use as chicken broth . Using 2 forks, pull the chicken apart until shredded.
  • In a large nonstick pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  • Add the diced onion, diced celery, and a pinch of salt. Sauté until the vegetables have softened, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the hot sauce and chicken broth. Stir until the liquid has reduced slightly, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the shredded chicken and mix until everything is well incorporated.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and let the chicken cool for 5 minutes before spooning into the lettuce leaves.
  • Top with shredded carrots, sliced celery, and bleu cheese dressing.
  • Enjoy!
