Instructions

  • Place the frozen chicken breasts in the Instant Pot and pour in the chicken broth.
  • Lock the lid, close the steam valve, and cook on high pressure for 12 minutes for four breasts; use 10 minutes for two breasts, adjusting for size and bone-in chicken.
  • Let the pot naturally release pressure for 1 minute, then quick-release the remaining pressure. Drain the liquid and serve, or shred the chicken and add sauce for sliders or rice.
