Ingredients
- 2 pounds Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups Chicken broth
- 0.25 cups White vinegar
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Prepared horseradish
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 6 Potato or brioche sandwich buns
- 0.5 cups Pickle slices
Directions
Step 1
Place the chicken breasts in a large pot or Dutch oven. Pour in the chicken broth and add enough water to fully submerge the chicken.
Step 2
Bring the liquid to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let the chicken simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until fully cooked and tender.
Step 3
While the chicken cooks, make the white BBQ sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, white vinegar, horseradish, lemon juice, honey, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder until smooth. Refrigerate the sauce until ready to use.
Step 4
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot and let it cool slightly. Use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Step 5
Transfer the shredded chicken to a large bowl and toss with 1/2 cup of the prepared white BBQ sauce until evenly coated.
Step 6
Toast the sandwich buns, if desired, and divide the pulled chicken evenly among the bottoms of the buns.
Step 7
Top each sandwich with pickle slices for extra crunch and tanginess, then drizzle more white BBQ sauce over the chicken.
Step 8
Close the sandwiches with the top buns and serve warm. Enjoy your Pulled Chicken Sandwiches with White BBQ Sauce!
