2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (7 oz each)
2 cups chicken broth (or water, more as needed)
1 rib celery (cut in 2" chunks)
¼ medium onion (sliced ½-inch thick )
salt and black pepper
½ teaspoon poultry seasoning (or 2 sprigs of fresh parsley, sage, or 1 sprig rosemary)

Steps

Place chicken breasts in a medium saucepan and add broth or water to just about cover the breasts.
Add celery, onion, salt, pepper, and seasoning to the pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cover and reduce heat to a gentle simmer, the liquid should be lightly bubbling.
Cook boneless chicken breasts for about 12-15 minutes or bone in chicken breasts for 25-30 minutes or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove from the cooking liquid and rest for at least 5 minutes. Shred or chop as desired.
Strain the cooking liquid and use in soups or even as a cooking liquid for rice.
