"Broth" means it contains animal juice. That's slightly better than
your typical water + salt + trisodium phosphate. The broth helps
make an otherwise tasteless breast taste more like chicken.

The real question is, where did they get the chicken broth to flavor
the tasteless chicken? Why not just sell the tasty chicken in the
first place?
