Step 1

Fill a large pot with water. Add the chicken tenderloins into the water and then bring the water to a boil.

Step 2

Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Cook the tenderloins for 8 to 10 minutes. Do not overcook or the chicken can become rubbery. The chicken should register at 165 degrees with a meat thermometer or you will also able to tell it is done when you shred it.

Step 3

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the water and let it cool. Use a mixer or food processor to shred the chicken. I find that using a hand mixer is best because it is quicker and it helps get the chicken very fine.

Step 4

Next, use your food processor to dice your celery fine pieces.

Step 5

Add the mayonnaise, celery, and seasonings to the shredded chicken. Add the diced fruit. Stir well and then serve.
