Instant Pot Pulled Chicken
Easy to make pulled chicken in the Instant Pot.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 3-4 chicken breasts
- 1 cup chicken stock
- 1 tablespoon chicken seasoning or your favorite seasoning blend. See notes.
Chicken Seasoning
- 1/4 tablespoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon celery salt
- 1/4 teaspoon course salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Pour chicken broth, seasonings and chicken into Instant Pot.
- Cover with lid, set valve to sealing. Pressure cook for 12 minutes and then naturally release for another 10 minutes. (This cooking time helps make it easy to shred.)
- After 10 minutes of natural release, flip the valve to venting. Once the pin drops, remove the lid. Using two forks, shred or pull the chicken.
- Serve or let cool and save for meal prep.

Notes
I made this in a 6-quart Instant pot. For a larger pot, add an extra 1/2 cup liquid.
Seasoning: Feel free to use just salt and pepper or seasoning salt. Replace the chicken seasoning with 2 teaspoons of salt and pepper or seasoning salt.
