Instant Pot Chicken Caesar Sandwiches

Have you been looking for great meals to use in your new Instant Pot? Well look no further, this Instant Pot Chicken Caesar Sandwich recipe will become a favorite weeknight dinner recipe. I personally LOVE meals that are easy and quick to throw together and this is exactly that!

Ingredient Notes

• Boneless skinless chicken breasts
• Chicken broth
• Caesar salad dressing
• Shredded Parmesan cheese
• Fresh parsley
• Ground black pepper
• Shredded romaine lettuce
• Buns

How to make Instant Pot Chicken Caesar Sandwiches

1. Place chicken breasts in inner pot of Instant Pot. Add in chicken broth.
2. Turn the valve to “seal” and set Instant Pot to manual for 6 minutes. It will take 5-10 minutes for the Instant Pot to come to pressure.
3. Once the chicken is done cooking, let it do a natural release for 5 minutes (don’t touch anything!) and then move the valve to “vent” to release remaining pressure.
4. Remove the chicken from the liquid and shred using 2 forks.
5. Place shredded chicken in a bowl, along with dressing (use more or less to your liking), Parmesan cheese, parsley, and black pepper.
6. Spoon chicken mixture onto buns, top with lettuce, and serve.

Tip: If you are using frozen chicken breasts give yourself a little more time. Cook the chicken for 10 minutes on manual. It will take about 10-12 minutes for the Instant Pot to come to pressure when using frozen chicken.

Storing and Other Tips

You can put leftover Caesar Chicken Mixture in a airtight container or a zip top bag and it should last in the refrigerator for about 3-5 days.

• You can use either shredded parmesan or grated parmesan cheese
• The more dressing you add the creamier it will be (make it however you like!)
• If you don’t have fresh parsley dried parsley can be substituted, however fresh is my favorite
• If you don’t like Caesar dressing or don’t have any on hand, feel free to use ranch dressing instead. It will have a different flavor, but will still be delicious.
• Romaine lettuce can be substituted with your favorite greens
• This is also a great recipe to use a rotisserie chicken with – just pick up a rotisserie chicken at the store, shred it up, and start at the 5th step in the directions!
• You can also cook this chicken in a slow cooker. Follow the same directions at outlined, but instead cook it in the slow cooker on low heat for 4-5 hours (or 3 hours on high).
• If you want a faster way to shred the chicken, simply put it in your KitchenAid mixing bowl with the paddle attachment and turn it on the 1st or 2nd speed for 2-3 minutes and TA-DA!! Completely shredded! It doesn’t get simpler than that.
