Hello friends! In an effort to not complain to you about winter and to make you (and me) smile, I wanted to tell you that Piper drew me a Ninja Unicorn Fox the other day. Head of a unicorn, body of a fox, horn made out of pipe cleaners and ready for anything a ninja might encounter, it is exactly as awesome as you might think. I’ll have to share it on my Instagram Stories.
INSTANT POT CHICKEN RECIPE
Okay! Now that you are smiling, let’s talk about Instant Pot Chicken! Very often when I make a recipe that calls for cooked chicken, what you would ideally use is rotisserie chicken from the grocery store. It is moist, it is delicious, and it is perfect in recipes. However. My life is never that well planned and what I always end up using is boiled chicken. Guys, I kind of loathe boiling chicken. Something about it just makes me feel blah. So! Today I have for you this delicious, moist, flavorful shredded chicken that you make in your instant pot. Start to finish was are talking about 35 minutes and it is moist and perfect. This is a lot like my Instant Pot Chicken Tacos, but without the taco seasoning. I know I have come at you with a ton of instant pot recipes lately (super excited about my Instant Pot Beef Stew and my Instant Pot Quinoa). If you don’t have one, I will have a non-instant pot recipe for you on Friday. That said, I really do recommend buying one. I’m finding that I am using mine more and more. I love how hands off it makes dinner.
HOW DO YOU MAKE INSTANT POT CHICKEN?

CAN I DO FROZEN CHICKEN BREASTS IN THE INSTANT POT?
YES! You can very easily grab a frozen chicken breast out of the freezer and pop it in the instant pot. The only thing that changes is the timing and the seasoning.
Skip the oil, salt and pepper and just seasoning after cooking however you like. Increase the time from 12 minutes to 20. Do everything else exactly the same.
