Instructions

  1. Add one tablespoon olive oil to bottom of Instant Pot.
  2. In this order, add in chicken breasts, 1/3 cup stock, onion & garlic powder, paprika, salt, and 1 cup BBQ sauce.
  3. Lock the lid and pressure cook on High for 10 minutes. After the cook time is over, release pressure naturally for 10 minutes and then quick release.
  4. Carefully open the lid, remove chicken breasts and shred them with two forks and place shredded chicken back in the Instant Pot and stir in the remaining half cup of BBQ sauce.
  5. Serve on a bun with coleslaw, pickles and your favorite sides.

Notes

  • I don't sear the breasts first, but you can do this is you like to add a little more texture and flavor. Sear them on the saute function on the Instant Pot for a couple of minutes on each side before carrying on with the recipe.
  • If you prefer your chicken on the spicy side, try adding in a pinch of cayenne.
  • If you have a lot of liquid after the chicken is cooked, remove some of the liquid and add the remaining half a cup of bbq sauce to make the sauce thicker.
