I've taken chicken and finely shredded it into very tiny pieces for kittens as their first taste of meat/solid foods. But this was done at about 4-5 weeks.

The only danger to the kitten would be if it tried to swallow too big of a bite, sounds like the little nibble was fine to me


But if you want to give the kittens boiled chicken, then shred it finely before you give it to them.
