Perfectly Moist boiled chicken

I use a lot of cooked chicken in meals.... everything from chicken salad for Becca to a killer Zucchini casserole to use up all the stuff I grow during the summer! I was buying those roasted chicken for the last couple of years because I could never get my boiled chicken breast to come out moist enough....

I have found the perfect method to get moist chicken breast from boiling.

Use fresh or frozen breast meat but if using frozen make sure it is completely thawed. Fill a pot with just enough chicken broth so it will cover the meat by one inch. Bring the broth to a boil and add the chicken and return to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and let it cook for 10 minutes. When 10 minutes have passed, put a secure fitting lid on the pot and remove from the heat.

I let it sit in the pot for about 30 minutes with the heat off. Use a thermometer to check the internal temp make sure it has reached 160. If ti's still not there, i turn the heat back on just till it starts to boil and then off again with the lid on. That time I check it after 5 minutes..

This is the only method I've used that gets the best results especially with previously frozen chicken breast.
