Do you a have a recipe that you can make again, and again, and again and not get bored with it? For us, it is this super easy and delicious spicy pulled chicken. Before we got our IP, we would make this in the Crockpot and it was good- but it took hours, the whole house smelled like hot sauce and it often turned out dry. Ever since we adapted it for the Instant Pot, this chicken has become a family favourite. It's quick. It's easy. It only requires pantry staples. And best of all- it comes out perfect. Every. Single. Time.
The pulled chicken is perfect for making wraps, adding a dash of protein to salads/sandwiches, mixing up with eggs for a breakfast skillet, fixing a burrito bowl or just eating by itself with rice or bread. It takes minimal time, minimal effort and keeps really well in the fridge for 3-4 days.
