Instant Pot Ranch Shredded Chicken
Let me just say, this was my first time using an Instant Pot. With that said, it isn’t as “instant” as I thought. There is a 10-15 minutes warm and cool down period. So when preparing your meal, keep that in mind if you have not used one before! I made Ranch Shredded Chicken served on warm buns and with amazing sweet potato fries! I hope you enjoy as much as my family and I did!
Therefore, be on the lookout for more Instant Pot recipes in the future! I think I am in love!!!
Instant Pot Shredded Chicken
Ingredients
- 4 Boneless Chicken Breast
- 1 Red Pepper, chopped
- 1 4 oz Cream Cheese
- 1 cup Chicken Broth
- 1 packet Dry Ranch Dressing Mix
- 1/2 cup Sour Cream
- 1/2 cup Chopped Green Onions
- 8 slices Pre-cooked Bacon, chopped
- 1 cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
- 8 Hamburger Buns *or your favorite bun!
Instructions
- Place chicken pieces, chicken broth, cream cheese, red pepper and dry dressing mix in the Instand Pot. In that order, with the chicken on the bottom. Cook on manual for 15 minutes.
- Once the manual cooking is complete, use the manual pressure release. Be sure not to get in the way of the escaping steam.
- Remove chicken pieces and place in a seperate bowl. Shred using 2 forks. Once shredded, add back into the Instant Pot. Add remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly. Turn on the Instant Pot to saute for 10 minutes until all ingredients are warm. Be sure to mix the ingredients regularly while keeping warm so there is no sticking to the bottom of the pan!
- Place on your favorite bun and enjoy!!
