1. Stage
Make the spice rub: In a small bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the spice rub.
2. Stage
Combine everything in the pressure cooker: Add the chicken to the pressure cooker. Arrange the thighs in a single layer in the pot. Sprinkle with the spice blend, then pour over the pineapple juice and ketchup. Stir to coat the chicken evenly.
3. Stage
Pressure cook the chicken: Place the lid on your pressure cooker. Make sure that the pressure regulator is set to the “Sealing” position. Select the “Poultry” or “Manual” program and set the time to 15 minutes at high pressure. It will take about 15 minutes for your pressure cooker to come up to pressure, and then the actual cooking will begin. The total time from when you seal the pressure cooker to the finished dish is about 30 minutes.
4. Stage
Release the pressure: You can either perform a quick pressure release by moving the vent from “Sealing” to “Venting,” or you can let the pot depressurize naturally (this takes about 15 minutes).
5. Stage
Separate the chicken and cooking liquid: Use tongs or a slotted spoon to transfer the chicken thighs to a plate or cutting board.
6. Stage
Reduce the cooking liquid: Select the “Sauté” program on the pressure cooker and let the cooking liquid reduce for 10 minutes.
7. Stage
While the liquid is reducing, use a pair of forks to shred the chicken thighs
8. Stage
Toss the shredded chicken with the reduced liquid and serve: Return the chicken to the pot with the reduced cooking liquid and toss it to coat the chicken evenly. Serve it in tortilla shells with the fixings listed above. Leftover shredded chicken will keep in the fridge for 3 to 4 days, or in the freezer for up to three months.
