Ingredients

2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1/2 red onion sliced
2 medium bell peppers
1/2 cup BBQ sauce plus extra (I like Trader Joe’s Organic Kansas City Style)
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 ground fennel seed

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in the inner pot, cover and pressure cook on high for 25 minutes.
When cook time is down, quick release the pressure.
Remove 1 cup of the liquid and set aside.
Shred the chicken and add back about 1/2 cup of the liquid and more BBQ sauce until it’s a saucy as you like it.
Slow Cooker: cook on high for 4 hours (or low for 6)
Stove top: cook, covered for 30-40 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165-degrees F
