- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, shredded
- 6 slices of bacon, cooked and chopped
- 2 cups yellow onion, diced
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 2/3 cup mayonnaise
Instructions
- Dice the onions, and place in a skillet with the oil over medium high heat to caramelize, about 30 minutes. Stir onions occasionally while the chicken and bacon are cooking.
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil, add the chicken breasts and lower heat to medium high and cook for about 20 minutes. While they are cooking, you can cook the bacon in a skillet until crisp, or bake in a 375 degree oven for 20-25 minutes until done, then chop.
- While the chicken and bacon are cooking, remove the thyme leaves from their stems. In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, cayenne, salt, and fresh thyme.
- After chicken, bacon, and onions are done cooking, shred the chicken with two forks, and add the chicken, onions, and bacon to the mayonnaise mixture and stir well to combine. Serve in a sandwich or on top of greens.
