INGREDIENTS
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 lbs chicken tenders
- 1 cup chicken broth
INSTRUCTIONS
- Combine seasonings in bowl and season both sides of each chicken tender to taste.
- Set the Instant Pot to saute (you can also do this step stovetop) and brown the chicken tenders on each side for 1-2 minutes. This step is optional but seals in flavor. SEE NOTE
- Place trivet inside the Instant Pot.
- Pour chicken broth into the pot (directly over the chicken).
- Seal cooker and set to HIGH pressure for 6 minutes.
- When it’s done, release the pressure valve and wait for pressure to release, then let the chicken rest another 5 minutes.
- Serve with your favorite sauce and enjoy!
NOTES
I browned the tenders and really liked that it helped seal in the flavor. It also gives the tenders a nice texture on the outside if you want to enjoy them like chicken fingers or tenders and dip them in sauce. Browning is completely optional. Shredding was a breeze with the cooking time of 6 minutes.
