Ingredients for Instant Pot Quick Shredded Chicken

• 2 pounds chicken breasts (fresh or frozen)
• 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder

Ingredients for Nachos

• 1 bag of tortilla chips of choice
• 1/3 cup Kinzie Fiery BBQ Sauce (plus more for drizzling)
• 1/2 cup pinto beans
• 1/4 cup minced red onion
• 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

How to Make Quick Shredded Chicken in the Instant Pot

1. Place the chicken breasts in the Instant Pot or pressure cooker. Sprinkle evenly with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, then pour the chicken broth over the top.
2. Secure the lid and set the valve to the sealing position.
3. For frozen chicken breasts: Cook on a manual, high-pressure setting for 15 minutes.
4. For fresh/raw chicken breasts: Cook on a manual, high-pressure setting for 12 minutes.
5. Allow the pot to naturally release pressure for 10 minutes, then open the steam valve to release any remaining pressure.
6. Shred the chicken directly in the pot or transfer it to a bowl and shred using two forks or a hand mixer.
7. In a mixing bowl, toss the shredded chicken with 1/3 cup of Kinzie Fiery BBQ Sauce until evenly coated.

How to Assemble and Broil Kinzie Fiery BBQ Chicken Nachos

1. Preheat the broiler on high and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
2. Spread a layer of tortilla chips across the baking sheet.
3. Top the chips with the prepared Kinzie Fiery BBQ chicken, pinto beans, and shredded mozzarella cheese.
4. Broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.

Adding the Final Toppings

1. Remove the nachos from the broiler and add your desired toppings, such as minced red onion, sliced jalapeño, avocado, and sour cream.
2. Finish with a drizzle of Kinzie Fiery BBQ Sauce for extra flavor.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve as an appetizer, snack, or a fun dinner option for the family.
• Pair with guacamole, salsa, or a cold drink to complement the spicy flavors.

Tips for Perfect Nachos

• Layer the chips and toppings evenly to ensure every bite is flavorful.
• Broil briefly to avoid burning the chips while melting the cheese.
