Ingredients

  • 2 lbs boneless/skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup green onion, green parts only, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp butter, diced
  • 1 tsp garlic-infused olive oil
  • 14.5 oz can beef broth
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp parsley
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp thyme
  • On serving day: 6 slices Havarti cheese + 6 hoagie rolls

Directions

  1. In a large bowl mix together onion, butter, beef broth, Worcestershire, cornstarch, garlic olive oil, salt, parsley, pepper, and thyme. Add chicken and transfer to a gallon sized freezer bag or container for instant pot.

  2. MAKE IT NOW: Add to either the instant pot or crockpot and cook as directed below.

  3. MAKE IT A FREEZER MEAL: Seal bag or container, removing as much air as possible and freeze.

  4. COOK IN INSTANT POT

  5. From frozen, add contents into an instant pot. Saute for 5 minutes or until you have about 1/4 cup of liquids. Cook for 30 minutes at high pressure then allow 10 minutes for natural release.

  6. From thawed or freshly made, transfer into an instant pot. Cook for 8 minutes at high pressure, then allow 10 minutes for natural release.

  7. COOK IN CROCK POT

  8. From thawed or freshly made, transfer into slow cooker. Cook on high for 3-4 hours or low 6-7 hours.

  9. TO SERVE: Shred chicken. Toast hoagie rolls under the broiler until golden. Place some shredded chicken on hoagie bottom, and top with a slice of havarti cheese. Spoon off fat or use fat separator on liquids left in crock pot. Serve this “jus” into small bowls and serve with each sandwich for dipping.
