Once cooked through using a couple of forks shred up the chicken breasts by pulling them apart and leave the pieces to simmer in the now reduced broth.

Once the broth has almost completely reduced down and soaked into the pulled chicken remove from the heat and stir through the chipotle BBQ sauce, simmer for a couple more minutes and if needed pour in around 50ml water to loosen up the sauce, depending on how dry/saucy you like your pulled chicken.
