Pulled Chicken Sandwiches
Ingredients
  • 1
    2 - 2 1/4 pound deli-roasted chicken
  • 1
    tablespoon olive oil
  • 1
    medium onion, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
  • 1/3
    cup cider vinegar or white wine vinegar
  • 1/2
    cup tomato sauce
  • 3 - 4
    tablespoons seeded and finely chopped fresh red and/or green hot chili peppers
  • 2
    tablespoons snipped fresh thyme
  • 2
    tablespoons molasses
  • 2
    tablespoons water
  • 1/2
    teaspoon salt
  • 4
    sandwich buns, split
  • Bread-and-butter pickle slices
Directions

1. Remove meat from chicken (discard skin and bones). Use two forks or your fingers to pull meat into shreds.

2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook about 5 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally to separate into rings. Add vinegar; cook and stir 1 minute more.

3. Stir in tomato sauce, chile peppers, thyme, molasses, water, and salt. Bring to boiling. Add the chicken; tossing gently to coat. Heat through. Serve on rolls with pickle slices. Makes 6 sandwiches.
