Ingredients

  • 4 large slices of Sourdough, Tiger or Giraffe Bread UK; or 8 small slices
  • 2 packed cups shredded cooked chicken about 250g-300g
  • ⅔ cup BBQ Sauce use your favorite
  • 4 square slices Monterey/Pepper Jack cheese for melting

Instructions
 

Instructions

  • Start by making sure your sealing ring is clean and fitted well because that seal locks in all the pressure.
  • Shred your cooked chicken nice and fine, then mix that with BBQ sauce in a bowl. Get every bit coated.
  • Put your chicken mix in the cooker with just a little broth depth if you need, but this recipe mostly skips extra liquid to keep the flavors bold.
  • Secure the lid, check the float valve is down, and set your cooker to high pressure. Wait for that pressure build sound you love.
  • Cook for just a few minutes till everything warms through, since your chicken is already cooked, no need for long.
  • Let the pressure slow release itself naturally or carefully quick release if you're in a hurry, just watch that float valve rise.
  • Now, butter your bread sides for the grilled cheese stage. Grill each side in a pan about 3 to 4 minutes till golden and the cheese melts right through. Slice and serve warm.

Notes

Keep an eye on broth depth before locking the lid, too much water will make your grilled cheese soggy later.
