Instructions

Cook the chicken in your instant pot:

Step 1
Place 1 cup of chicken broth, water, and chicken into your instant pot.
Step 2
Press the meat button and cook for 10 minutes.
Step 3
Make sure the knob is set to sealing.
Step 4
Once the 10 minutes is over, you’ll switch the sealing knob to venting and allow all the steam to release.

Or, cook chicken on the stovetop:

Step 5
Bring the broth and water to a boil and add the chicken.
Step 6
Simmer for 15 – 20 minutes until cooked through.

How to make the shredded chicken filling:

Step 7
While the chicken is cooking, place the carrots, chopped onion, and celery in a large pan with the butter over medium-high heat.
Step 8
Sauté for 15 minutes, stirring frequently until the veggies reduce and are golden brown.
Step 9
Add the salt and garlic and sauté for 10 – 15 minutes until golden brown.
Step 10
Once the chicken is done cooking, place it on a cutting board and pull it apart with two forks to shred it.
Step 11
Transfer the shredded chicken into the pan with the veggies.
Step 12
Add 1/2 cup chicken broth, soy sauce, ketchup, and bbq sauce.
Step 13
Cook for 5 minutes until the sauce is incorporated into chicken/veg mixture.
Step 14
Transfer to a baking dish and spread across the bottom of a baking dish.

Make the sweet potato purée topping:

Step 15
Place a medium pot filled with water over high heat and bring to a boil.
Step 16
Turn the heat down to medium and add the sweet potatoes. Boil for 15 minutes.
Step 17
Once the sweet potato is easily pierced with a fork, strain the water out and transfer the sweet potatoes along with 3 tablespoons of butter, 2 cloves garlic, and sea salt into a food processor.
Step 18
Turn the processor on and allow it to process for a few minutes until the sweet potato is a smooth purée.
Step 19
Transfer the sweet potato mash on top of the chicken and spread it out with a rubber spatula.
Step 20
Optional: use a fork to make a cool design in the top.
Step 21
Broil on high for 2 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
Step 22
Sprinkle with fresh thyme and scoop onto plates or bowls and enjoy.
