Notes:

  • Instant Pot recipes require liquid to come to pressure. For most chicken recipes I use chicken broth or Better than Bouillon chicken base and water.
  • All recipes are cooked on high pressure with a 10 minute natural pressure release unless otherwise noted (don't use a quick release or chicken will get tough).
  • If cooking time doesn't differentiate between fresh and frozen chicken then add 2 minutes to the cooking time when using frozen chicken.
  • Salt and pepper to taste and add additional spices, if desired.
