I just tried this recipe and it is absolutely delicious! The chicken is extremely tender, I shredded and put it on a hamburger bun, splurged on a slice of pepper jack cheese but it was totally worth the extra calories!

I wear a Fitbit to encourage me to move more. We have a warehouse here at work and I find any excuse to walk out there (to check on material for customers,…
