Quicker Chopped Chicken
Food Processors are great timesavers, especially for shredding and chopping. When I'm chopping cooked chicken breasts, however, for use in a recipe calling for chunks or shredded chicken, I always seem to end up with pieces that are too fine and sometimes it even ends up more like ground chicken or paste.
I found that by substituting the plastic blade, which is recommended for dough, rather than using the metal blade as I do for most jobs, the problem is solved. I break the cooked chicken into large chunks and put them in the processor bowl, then pulse on and off until the chunks are the size I want. Since the plastic blade is not sharp, I never end up with paste.
