To make this shredded chicken, I started by pouring a can of condensed chicken broth into my Instant Pot along with two cups of water and some Barbecue Chicken seasoning.

 

I stirred the ingredients until the seasoning was well mixed with the liquid.

 

 

Then I added 2.5 lbs of boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the pot.

 

 

I placed the lid on the Instant Pot and turned it the the closed position.

 

I made sure the steam release handle was turned towards sealing and then set the Instant Pot to Pressure Cook High for 12 minutes.

 

After the Instant Pot was done cooking, I immediately turned the steam release handle to the venting position and did a quick release.

 

I removed the chicken breasts from the pot and used forks to pull them apart.

 

 

The chicken was so tender that it basically fell apart.

 

 

I stored my chicken in an airtight container in the fridge because I was going to be using it up within a couple days but you could also portion it into Ziploc bags and freeze it for later use.

 

This Instant Pot shredded chicken is an easy and delicious alternative to buying grocery store rotisserie chickens.
