Step 1

Begin by adding water to a large pot. Add the chicken tenderloins into the water. Bring the water to a boil.

Step 2

the pot. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes. Do not overcook or the chicken will be rubbery. The chicken should register at 165 degrees with a meat thermometer. You will also be able to tell if the chicken is done when you go to shred it.

Step 3

Once the chicken is done, remove it from the water and let it cool. Use two forks or use a stand or hand mixer to shred the chicken in a large bowl. I find that using a mixer is best because it is very quick and it helps get the chicken very fine like the original recipe.

Step 4

Next, run the celery rib through your food processor until it is finely diced.

Step 5

Stir well. Add the cranberries and slivered almonds and then stir again.

Step 6

Serve over salad, toasted bread, or with crackers.
