the first few minutes of simmering, add the herbs and bay leaves, partially
cover and simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes. Add the breast quarters
(plus additional hot water to cover, if necessary), skim off any new foam
that rises once the liquid returns to a simmer, partially cover and simmer
for 13 minutes. If cooking only chicken breast: Add the breast quarters
(plus additional hot water to cover, if necessary).  Skim off any foam that
rises during the first minute of simmering, add the herbs and bay leaves,
partially cover and simmer over medium heat for 13 mintues. Remove the pot
from the fire and let the chicken (whether whole bird or just breast) cool
in the broth if there is time.  Skin and bone the chicken, then shred the
meat into small pieces. Sprinkle with salt before using, unless directed
otherwise in your recipe. Source: Authentic Mexican; Rick & Deann Groen
