Notes
Notes:
- Remove skin off the chicken breast and for 12 to 18 minutes and then shred it into pieces once it cools down. You can also dice the boiled chicken if preferred.
- I use shredded cheddar cheese for this recipe. You can also use other types of cheese that goes well with your taste.
- Canned pineapple tidbits are the ones that I used. Feel free to use pineapple chunks or even fresh pineapple. Also, you can add around 3 tablespoons or more of pineapple juice for best results.
