INSTRUCTIONS
For the chìcken:

Place chìcken, onìons, garlìc, olìve oìl, oregano, allspìce, lemon pepper, lemon juìce, red wìne vìnegar and broth ìn your Instant Pot.
Cover and press the manual button. Set the tìmer for 20 mìnutes. The Instant Pot wìll take about 10 mìnutes to come to pressure ìf your chìcken ìs thawed and probably twìce as long ìf your chìcken ìs frozen. Once the tìmer beeps let the pressure release naturally for about 10-15 mìnutes and then move the valve to ventìng.
Remove the lìd. The chìcken should be really tender and shreddable. Use a slotted spoon to remove the chìcken from the pot and place ìt on a cuttìng board. Shred the chìcken. If servìng ìmmedìately you can then place chìcken on the pìta and top wìth Tzatzìkì and desìred toppìngs. If servìng later, place chìcken back ìnto the pot and let ìt marìnate ìn the juìces and keep the pressure cooker on the warm settìng. When ready to serve, use a slotted spoon to remove shredded chìcken.
