Instant Pot Chicken Breast Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Cooked boneless chicken breasts are a great solution to the age-old question, "What's for dinner?" Chicken breasts can be shredded for pulled chicken sandwiches and tacos, diced for soups, salads, and casseroles, or sliced and served as an entre along with side dishes. The instant pot is a great way to poach the chicken because it produces tender, juicy chicken breasts every time. The instructions are for 8-ounce chicken breasts. For smaller 6-ounce chicken breasts, subtract 1 minute from the cooking time. For larger 10-ounce chicken breasts, add 1 minute to the cooking time. You can also use an instant pot to cook many other chicken recipes.
