- 2 chicken breasts skinless and boneless
- 1 Teaspoon chili powder
- 1 Teaspoon garlic powder

- 1 Cup chicken broth
- 2 Cup BBQ sauce
- 1 red onion thinly sliced
- 1 Cup pepperoncini
- 1 Cup mozzarella cheese

Instructions
- Season chicken with chili powder, garlic powder and salt. Place chicken breast onto the trivet and into the Instant Pot. Pour in the chicken broth. Seal, then set to manual high pressure for 10 minutes. Quick release the steam and shred the chicken.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Set the Instant Pot to “keep warm” and stir in your favorite BBQ sauce. Once incorporated, remove and add to a bowl.
- Shred the cheese and mix to combine.
- Cut French bread in half and place onto a solid surface open face. I also cut the bread in half again to make 4 sections. Top the bread with the shredded chicken, red onions and pepperoncini. Cover with cheese and grind black pepper over the top.
- Bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
- Remove bread from the oven. Garnish with cilantro and serve.
Notes
Toast the bread first: For an extra crispy base, lightly toast the bread before topping.
Don’t skip the pressure release: Quick releasing helps the chicken stay juicy.
Mix cheeses together: A combination gives more flavor and better melt.
Use quality BBQ sauce: Choose one you love since it’s a main flavor.
