Notes

  • To Make in an Instant Pot:
  • Place chicken breast in sauce and use a spoon to cover with sauce.
  • Combine BBQ sauce, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika in inner instant pot.
  • Place chicken breast in sauce and use a spoon to cover with sauce.
  • Place lid on instant pot, turn vent to sealing position, and set to manual for 10 minutes. Pot will take a few minutes to pressurize, and chicken will cook for 10 minutes.
  • After pot beeps, allow a 10 minute natural release, then do a quick release to release remaining pressure. When pin drops, remove lid, and shred chicken before serving.
