Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix together the ketchup, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, honey, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper (if using).
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and place them in the Instant Pot. Pour the BBQ sauce over the chicken breasts.
  3. Close the lid and set the pressure valve to “sealing”. Set the Instant Pot to “manual” or “pressure cook” for 15 minutes. When the cooking is finished, quick release the steam.
  4. Open the lid and shred the chicken with two forks and stir to combine with the sauce.
  5. Serve the BBQ shredded chicken with your favorite sides and enjoy!

Equipment

This recipe requires an Instant Pot or a pressure cooker. You will also need a medium bowl and two forks for shredding the chicken.

Notes

For a spicier version, add more cayenne pepper or your favorite hot sauce. You can also add more honey for a sweeter version. If you don’t have an Instant Pot, you can make this recipe in a slow cooker by cooking the chicken on low for 6-8 hours.
