Description
This criollo-style shredded chicken is a comforting and flavorful dish, perfect for enjoying with family or friends. The chicken meat, slowly cooked with aromatic vegetables, is shredded and sautéed with onion, peppers and paprika, creating an explosion of flavors. I prepare it often because it is very versatile: it can be served with white rice, pigeon peas or even as a filling for arepas or empanadas. The key is in the cooking broth, which gives it a special touch. Go ahead and try it, you will love it! The preparation is simple and the result is a delicious and nutritious dish.

Once the cooking is finished, remove the chicken from the bowl and let it cool. Strain the cooking broth with a strainer and reserve for later use. Clean the Thermomix bowl.

When the chicken is cool enough to handle, shred it completely with the help of two forks or with your hands. Reserve the shredded chicken.
