Ingredients

  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 4-5 large chicken breasts individually frozen

Instructions

1

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts and chicken broth into your Instant Pot, and set it to cook for 25 minutes on manual. It will take a while to come up to pressure since the breasts are frozen, but once it is done you'll have perfectly cooked chicken breasts. Make sure to natural release the pressure!

Step 2

If the breasts were frozen into a large block, you might need some more time. Once the post is safe to open, remove the lid and cut the chicken in half to ensure there is not more pink remaining.

Step 3

If there IS pink remaining, cut all the breasts in half, make sure to give it a stir, and then set it to cook for 5 more minutes on manual. That should take care of it if there was just a little undercooked chicken remaining.

Step 4

Give the chicken a rough chop or a quick shred with two forks after it cools a bit, and then store in the fridge for up to 4-5 days, using as needed for meals.
