3)Bring about 6 quarts of water to a boil in a large stockpot. While you're waiting, heat broiler. Spray broiler pan with cooking spray, set pan about 6 inches from heat source. Put chicken breasts (halved) on pan and broil about 8 minutes. Flip chicken over and continue broiling another 8 minutes. Note, the time depends on your broiler.
