BBQ Chicken

  • Dump all of the ingredients in the instant pot and sir around to mix the ingredients up with the chicken. If useing chicken that is frozen see note below.
  • Place the lid on the pressure cooker and move the valve to the sealing position. Set to pressure cook on high for 8 minutes.

  • Add a serving of the shredded chicken onto some oven baked french fries (link to recipe above) to complete the bowl. Or enjoy on a toasted brioche bun.

Creamy Dill Coleslaw

  • Top onto the shredded chicken bowls. Garnish finished bowls with some dill pickle slices and our homemade southwest chipotle sauce (Recipe linked above).

If cooking chicken from frozen please adjust time to cook for 13 minutes on high pressure.
