I am guessing you are saying that too much sodium, as in too salty of a flavour for you?
If you boiled it, would you not be boiling the salt right back into it?
However, I am thinking that if you boiled it with some raw potato(es), the potatoes may soak up the excess sodium and help deplete the flavour in the meat. Bonus! mashed potatoes in the making!!
Just a guess on my part ................ anyone think this may work?
