Perfect for Lunches, Salads, Almost Anything!
I love salads and fresh chicken sandwiches. Process meats just don't do it for me.
Sometimes I use tuna but I much prefer fresh chicken. I know you can buy Shredded Chicken from the Deli at the supermarket but I want CHICKEN, not chicken with gristle, skin, and other bit of the chicken. So I make my own. Super quick and tasty.
I sometimes marinate the chicken first for extra flavour or I simply leave it plain only.
When shredding you can add salt and pepper or mix it with homemade mayonnaise and mustard - really yum.
Steamed Chicken / Shredded Chicken
I love salads and fresh chicken sandwiches. Process meats just don't do it for me. Nor does the shredded chicken in the deli. I like to know what is in my chicken
- Thermomix
- 500 gm Raw Chicken (any cut without bones)
- 600 gm Water
- 2 tbsp Stock (optional)
-
Fill TM bowl with water
-
Put on the TM Lid and put Varoma in place - I line with wet baking paper with holes. (see notes)

Secure Varoma Lid

Steam - 20-25 mins | Varoma | Speed 2
-
When cook has finished, discard water (no need to rinse bowl)

Place chicken in TM Bowl and secure lid and MC
This is where you can add salt/pepper/mayonnaise - basically anything you want to flavour your chicken
-
5 Seconds | REVERSE | Speed 4
-
Place in sealed container and put into the fridge. This will last for 3 days. Yes, because it is so fresh with no preservatives - you don't want to risk it any longer.

To make baking paper with holes either tear small holes or fold the baking paper and use a hold punch. Yes, I'm a bit lousy with things like this, but hey, why pay for things when you don't have too.
I always we my baking paper before lining anything.
- It makes for easy shaping to the bowl
- It doesn't burn as quickly in the oven
