Instant Pot Shredded Chicken
  1. Add the chicken breasts, seasoning and chicken stock to the bowl of your pressure cooker. Give everything a brief toss to combine, then arrange the chicken breasts so that they are spread out in an even layer.

  2. Cover and set the pressure cooker lid valve to “sealing.” Pressure cook on high for 10 minutes, followed by a 5 minute natural release, followed by a quick release (carefully flip the valve to “venting”) to release whatever pressure remains.

  3. Remove the lid and use two forks to shred the chicken (use a hand mixer in the pot to speed it up!) . Give it a thorough toss with the remaining juices in the pressure cooker.

  4. Serve the chicken while it’s nice and warm. Or transfer it to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. (allow it to cool before vacuum sealing to keep a better seal longer)
