Pressure-Cooker Carolina-Style Vinegar BBQ Chicken

15 min6 servings

I live in Georgia but I appreciate the tangy, sweet and slightly spicy taste of Carolina vinegar chicken. —Ramona Parris, Acworth, Georgia

Ingredients

2 cups water

1 cup white vinegar

1/4 cup sugar

1 tablespoon reduced-sodium chicken base

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

3/4 teaspoon salt

1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts

6 whole wheat hamburger buns, split, optional

Instructions

1 In a 6-qt. electric pressure cooker, mix the first 6 ingredients; add chicken. Lock lid and close the pressure-release valve. Adjust to pressure-cook on high for 5 minutes.

2 Allow pressure to naturally release for 8 minutes, then quick-release any remaining pressure.

3 Remove chicken and cool slightly. Reserve 1 cup cooking juices and discard remaining juices. Shred chicken with 2 forks. Combine with reserved juices. If desired, serve chicken mixture on buns.
