To use, simply open the package and drain any excess water. The chicken is already cooked and can be added directly to your recipes.

Its pre-shredded form makes it easy to mix into sauces or fillings.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike raw chicken breast, this product is fully cooked and ready to eat, significantly reducing preparation time. It is also conveniently shredded, eliminating the need for manual shredding or chopping. The water it is packed in helps maintain moisture, which can be different from air-chilled or vacuum-sealed raw chicken.
How to keep the rest
After opening, transfer any unused chicken to an airtight container and refrigerate. It should be consumed within a few days to ensure freshness. Do not leave the opened package at room temperature for extended periods.
