Steps:

  • Mix salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper in a bowl. Cut chicken into 3- to 4-inch pieces and place in a large resealable plastic bag. Sprinkle the salt mixture over the chicken in the bag. Seal the bag and shake to completely coat the chicken.
  • Pour water into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Place the wire rack into the pot. Arrange chicken on the rack. Close and lock the lid. Select Meat/Poultry function; set timer for 50 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 10 minutes.
  • Transfer chicken to a bowl. Shred using 2 forks. Add 1/2 cup of liquid from the pot and liquid smoke; mix well. Serve on buns and top with barbeque sauce.

BBQ PULLED CHICKEN

In our house, we don't agree on how much barbecue sauce should be added to our pulled chicken. Some like the sauce to be dripping, and I like a minimal amount. This is a simple recipe for pulled chicken, and you may add any amount of barbecue sauce you would like. You could also use this pulled chicken as a protein for a green salad, or a filling for a taco, with a few seasoning tweaks. Or, dice it (instead of pulling it) and use in a mayonnaise-based chicken salad. However you choose to use it, you can start it on the stovetop, finish it in the oven, and have dinner on the table in less than an hour.

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Pat chicken breasts dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Heat oil in a 12-inch, nonstick, oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add chicken, skin-side down, to the hot oil and cook until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and brown on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Cover the skillet and transfer to the preheated oven. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone reads 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and cover with foil; let sit until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. The residual heat will bring the internal temperature to the recommended 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Remove and discard skin and bones. Use 2 forks to shred chicken.
  • Serve warm with barbecue sauce.

Slow cooker pulled chicken image

Steps:

  • Heat the slow cooker to low and heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan. Brown the chicken in batches, transferring it to the slow cooker as you go. Add the remaining oil to the pan and fry the onions for 5 mins, or until just softened, then stir in the garlic and paprika and cook for another minute. Tip into the slow cooker, then swirl 100ml water around the pan and pour this in as well.
  • Add the chipotle, passata, barbecue sauce, sugar and lime juice, then season and stir. Cover and cook for 6-8 hrs until the chicken is really tender. Using two forks, shred the chicken through the sauce. Serve in buns, taco shells, jacket potatoes or over rice, with coriander leaves, chillies and guacamole, if you like.
