- Once the cooking time is complete, allow the pressure to naturally release. When the pressure valve drops remove the lid. Drain and shred your chicken. I love using a stand mixer to shred it, but two forks work as well.

Recipe tips
Recipe tips
- Use a hand or stand mixer to easily and evenly shred your chicken every time.
- This recipe keeps in the fridge for up to 6 days, so it is great for meal prep.
- Freeze in individual servings for quick, easy lunches or snacks on the go.
- Don’t worry if you don’t like greek yogurt or cottage cheese (I don’t like them individually either). I promise you will never know they’re in there.
- You can start with ¼ cup of hot sauce and work your way up to dial in your perfect spice level.
- Use hot sauce, do not use buffalo sauce because it has so many filler ingredients.
