Step 1
Toss the chicken with the garlic salt, paprika, onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper until evenly coated.
Step 2
Place a rack in the bottom of a 6- or 8-quart Instant Pot® and add 1 cup of water. Put the chicken on the rack. Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 7 minutes (see Cook's Note). After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete. Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Transfer the chicken to a large bowl and shred with two forks, reserving liquid in the pot. Remove the rack.
Step 3
Set the pot to saute on high and bring the remaining liquid to a boil. Let cook (uncovered) until reduced back to 1 cup, about 5 minutes. Pour the liquid over the shredded chicken and toss to combine.
Step 4
The chicken will keep up to 4 days. Let cool completely before refrigerating.
