1 1/2 cups BBQ sauce
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 chipotle peppers in adobo
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, sliced
Potatoes:
4 medium russet potatoes
Vegetable oil, for baking potatoes
2 cups sour cream
2 cups shredded Cheddar
1 cup diced green onion
Directions
Special equipment:
a multi-cooker- For the chicken: Add the chicken, BBQ sauce, honey, vinegar, salt, chipotles, garlic and onion to a multi-cooker along with 1/4 cup of water and toss to combine. Cover and position the vent to Sealing. Set to pressure cook on high and set the timer to 12 minutes.
- When the time is up, quick-release the steam, then remove the lid. Remove the chicken to a large bowl and shred with 2 forks. Add the sauce to the meat in 1/4-cup increments until it has become saucy but not soupy. Reserve the remaining sauce for serving or freeze for future use (see Cook's Note).
- For the potatoes: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Prick each potato all over with a fork. Rub vegetable oil on each potato and bake on a baking sheet for 1 hour. Slice the potatoes lengthwise three-quarters of the way through. Add 2 cups chicken, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup Cheddar, 1/4 cup green onion and drizzle of reserved sauce to each potato. Serve immediately.
