  • 2 TBS curry powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 2 green onions

  • 2. Add shredded chicken and stir until combined.

Notes

Note: The best way to get shredded chicken is to cook in the Instant Pot for 13 minutes with a tsp each salt, onion powder and garlic powder.  You can release the steam or wait for it to naturally dissipate.  Remove the lid, use a hand mixer to shred the chicken.  It takes about 15 seconds!  Be sure to cover the pot with a large kitchen towel to prevent the hot liquid in the Instant Pot from jumping out.
