We eat a lot of chicken in this family because we love it, it’s a versatile protein and because we only buy chicken Raised by a Canadian Chicken Farmer we know it’s top quality, has highest standards of animal care, grain-fed and always hormone free. When I need some recipe inspiration I can always go to chicken.ca for some ideas. they have so many fabulous recipes. I particularly love their Quick and Easy recipes section because all too often that’s what I need. Doesn’t mean they never lack in taste so that means my family and I always have a tasty meal even if it’s quick to make. I’ve been using my Instant Pot more now that I’m getting used to it and because you can whip up a meal in no time. You do need to use the oven near the end just to crisp up the chicken but it’s not a lot of time 5-10 minutes max. I love all sorts of food but chicken really is my favourite protein so I wanted to make carnitas but instead of the usual pork I wanted chicken instead of course so that’s how we got to this Instant Pot Chicken Carnitas recipe. You’ll love how easy it is to make, so much flavour and everyone can put their own toppings on to suit their tastes. That’s our kind of meal as we all like different toppings.
