This recipe is easy, quick and tasty way to batch prep a protein or feed many people at once!
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1.5-2 pounds of chicken breast
- 12 oz Franks Red Hot Sauce – Original
- 4 Tablespoons of Kerry Gold Butter
- Salt & Pepper
- Garlic Powder
- Onion Powder
Utensils: - Cutting Board (for shredding)
- Two forks to do the shredding
Instructions:
- Plug in your instapot and set to poultry and pressure cook for 15 minutes.
Note: Your instapot will take 10 minutes to come up to temperature. - As the instapot is heating – pour in a bit of the Frank’s Red Hot Sauce to coat the bottom of the instapot. This prevents the chicken from sticking when finished.
- Place your chicken into the instapot side by side, not stacked.
- Pour the rest of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce into the instapot.
- Season with Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Salt & Pepper to taste.
- Place your 4 Table Spoons of Kerry Gold Butter right on top.
- Place the lid of your instapot on and make sure your dial is set to ‘sealed’.
- When your instapot finishing cooking, turn it off and wait for the steam to naturally release (10 or so minutes) – AKA don’t touch that dial.
- Grab your cutting board and forks. Pull each breast out of the instapot one by one and shred with your forks.
- Once the chicken has been shredded, place the meat back into the pot with the juices so the sauce can be absorbed into the chicken. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
- Enjoy!
>>> Ways I might want to add to the recipe to add different flavors or stretch the portion if I don’t have a lot of chicken or want to make A LOT:
- Sautee half an onion in the instapot – then add Frank’s red hot to the bottom of the pan, then chicken, etc.
- Add a can of Rotel Diced Tomatoes & Green Chiles – whatever heat you like. I would add this in before I would put the butter on top.
