Chicken Bacon Ranch Sliders
You really can't go wrong with ranch, cheddar, and bacon, and this chicken is no exception. We advise piling it high on potato rolls, but it'd also be great as a dip, in lettuce wraps, or straight from the Instant Pot; the possibilities are endless!
Ingredients:
2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 Tbsp water
1 (2 oz. packet) Ranch Seasoning
1 (8 oz. block) cream cheese
4 green onions, thinly sliced on the bias
6 oz shredded white cheddar cheese
8 slices cooked bacon
Bibb lettuce, for serving
Slider buns, for serving
Method:
Step 1 - Season chicken with salt and pepper. Add water and chicken to Instant Pot, then sprinkle in ranch seasoning and cream cheese. Seal lid and set to Pressure Cook on High for 10 minutes.
Step 2 - Follow manufacturer's instructions for quick releasing pressure manually. Remove chicken breasts and shred into chunks with two forks, then mix back into cooking liquid.
Step 3 - Add cheddar to pot and close lid for about 2 minutes, until cheddar is melty from residual heat, then mix everything together.
Step 4 - To serve as-is: Crumble bacon and garnish chicken mixture with green onions, crumbled bacon, and more black pepper.
Step 5 - To serve as a sandwich: Place ½ cups shredded chicken mixture onto each potato roll, top with two halves of bacon and bibb lettuce then close sandwich with top bun.
