Instructions
To prepare the Chicken Enchilada Filling, you can either roast your own chicken, use a rotisserie chicken, but I prefer to use my Instant Pot to pressure cook 2 large Chicken Breast with 1 cup of stock and undrained Green Chilies. Once ready, you can shred the Chicken with 2 forks pulling it apart or use the paddle attachment on your stand mixer.
Once you have shredded the Chicken, add in the remaining filling ingredients and mix well. At this point, you can serve it up straight away or cover it and keep it refrigerated for up to 2 days until ready to enjoy.
Prepare the optional toppings, and get those Pepperidge Farm Slider Buns ready to serve. To assemble, be creative and DIY how you'd like.
Notes
When I making my Chicken in the Instant Pot, because I'm adding in the Green Chilies at that stage, I do not add additional Green Chilies when making the filling. You can also add in more spice, finely diced jalapenos, crushed red chili pepper or hot sauce.Tweak this recipe to suit your own personal taste and ENJOY!
