Steps:
- On a cutting board, pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Season all over with the salt and pepper.
- Set the Instant Pot to sauté and add the olive oil. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the chicken, breast side-down, and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip the chicken over with tongs and continue to cook until golden brown on the other side, about 5 minutes more. Remove the chicken from the Instant Pot and transfer to a clean cutting board.
- Place the trivet in the bottom of the Instant Pot and pour in the chicken broth. Place the chicken, breast side-up, on the trivet, and cover the pot. Set to manual pressure for 35 minutes. Once the timer is up, let the Instant Pot release naturally for 30 minutes.
- Remove the chicken with tongs and transfer to a cutting board. Use 2 forks to shred the meat, then transfer to a medium bowl. Discard the skin and bones. Add the barbecue sauce and stir until combined.
- Serve the chicken on the buns or as desired.
- Enjoy!
