Description
Easy and flavorful frozen chicken breasts made in the Instant Pot.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium chicken breasts (whole, frozen, boneless)
- 3/4 cup chicken broth (or water)
Instructions
- Put frozen chicken breasts inside your Instant Pot or pressure cooker.
- Add chicken broth (you could use water but my preference is using broth for the flavor).
- Lock the lid and close your steam valve.
- Set to manual, pressure, high for 4 frozen chicken breasts = 12 minutes OR 2 frozen chicken breasts = 10 minutes (times will vary slightly depending on the size of your chicken breasts and if they’re boneless or not, mine were boneless).
- Do a 1 minute natural release, then a quick release.
- Drain liquid and enjoy, or better yet shred right in the pot and add sauce to make shredded chicken for sliders or atop rice.
Notes
- This recipe works best with boneless chicken breasts.
