  4. bring to a boil, cover and reduce to simmer.
  5. cook two hours.
  6. remove the thighs and reduce the sauce, til its a little thicker.
  7. shred the chicken thighs, with two forks.
  8. seperate the chunks from the sauce. add the liquid to the chicken, it will adhere better if the chicken is warm i.e. not hot.
  9. save the chunks a good jarred salsa is now a great one.
