Cook on high pressure for 16 minutes if chicken breasts are larger sized. If chicken breasts are small to medium sized cook on high pressure for 14 minutes.
Manually release the pressure until the pin releases on the lid of the pot.
Remove chicken and shred. Return chicken to the pot to allow it to soak- up the broth. Store chicken in a sealed container for up to 4-5 days. To freeze, place chicken (I typically freeze in 2 cup portions) in a freezer safe sealable bag. Lay flat and push out the air before sealing. Store in freezer till ready to use.
