Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken breasts boneless and skinless
- 1 cup chicken broth
- salt and pepper
- 8 slices provolone cheese
- 2 cups coleslaw mix
- 1/4 cup pineapple juice
- 3/4 cup coleslaw dressing
- 1 cup teriyaki sauce
- 12 slider buns
- 12 pineapple rings
- 2 tbsp butter melted
- 1 tsp dried Thai basil
Instructions
- Place chicken breasts on tray or baking sheet lined with paper towels, and pat dry.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the chicken and broth to an instant pot. Set the Instant Pot to manual, close the vent to seal, and set the timer for 10 minutes.
- Once the Instant Pot timer goes off, let the chicken sit for another 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, open the vent to release any remaining pressure, and then carefully open the Instant Pot and transfer the chicken to a large mixing bowl.
- Use a hand mixer or two forks to shred the chicken.
- Add teriyaki sauce to the chicken and mix to combine. Set aside.
- In a medium sized mixing bowl, add the coleslaw mix, coleslaw dressing, and pineapple juice. Toss to combine. Set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Place the slider buns on a baking sheet, removing the top portion and place the top buns on a separate baking sheet. You may need to slice the buns in half if yours aren't pre-sliced.
- Add shredded chicken and spread it evenly to completely cover the bottom buns. Top chicken with the provolone cheese slices.
- Add butter to a small microwave-safe bowl and heat for 10-15 seconds until melted.
- Add dried Thai basil to the melted butter and mix to combine.
- Using a sauce brush, brush the top of the slider buns with the melted butter mixture.
- Place both of your baking trays in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven. Take the top buns out sooner if they begin to get too brown on top.
- Top the chicken and cheese with a pineapple ring and a small scoop of the coleslaw. Place the top buns on, and push down slightly.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- You can sub shredded rotisserie chicken in this recipe to cut down on prep time.
- If you can't find Thai basil, use a 2:1 mix of regular basil and tarragon or regular basil and mint.
