Preparation Place
chicken breasts in bottom of a small,
heavy-bottomed pot. They should fit in a
single layer but fit quite snugly. Cover
chicken with broth or water. Add herbs and
bay leaf.
Bring to a
boil, then quickly reduce heat to low so
that the water is barely at a simmer.
Partly cover and gently simmer for 10
minutes. Turn off heat completely, and
allow chicken to remain in hot water for
15-20 minutes.
Slice or
shred chicken.
