This is not clear about the chicken. It sounds like you need to cube the chicken up into small pieces or shred it when it's cooked, but it doesn't state that. Can anyone clarify?

It says to add the chicken to the pan after the vegetables are tender. Then continue to cook the chicken until it is no longer pink.
