Chicken:
In a large skillet melt 4 tablespoons of butter or oil on medium heat. Add chicken breast(s). Season with garlic salt.
Chop 3 cloves of garlic. Set aside.
Once one side of your chicken has browned, flip the chicken to brown the other side.
Remove chicken from skillet and shred with 2 forks. It will be pink inside.
Return chicken to the hot skillet with 1 tablespoon of butter and your previously chopped garlic. Stir together until browned. Remove from heat.
