PREPARATION

  • Cover & cook on high for 3-4 hours, or on low for 6-8 hours. You know it is finished when the chicken falls apart when poked with a fork.
  • When chicken passes the tenderness test, transfer it from the pot to a cutting board and shred into coarse pieces by pulling apart with two forks.
  • Stir chicken back into soup along with both cans of beans.
  • Heat remaining 1/2 cup of stock in a skillet or pot and saute cauliflower over med-high heat for ~3-5 min or until tender.
