Did you forget to take the chicken out of the freezer? Fear not! You can cook frozen chicken breasts in a multifunction cooker in minutes. Remember to always check the minimum internal temperature for doneness.
Instructions
- Place 4 frozen chicken breasts inside the pot of your multifunction cooker. Make sure to pull apart frozen breasts. Breasts can overlap each other.
- Pour 1 cup of water over the chicken breasts. Add any seasonings or spices.
- Close lid and seal, cook for 12 minutes on normal poultry setting.
- Once cook time is done, let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes. Quick-release any remaining pressure and let sit for another 2-3 minutes.
- Open and remove lid. Insert a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. Done poultry should reach 165 degrees F.
- Can replace water with juice or chicken stock for additional flavoring, look for low sodium and/or reduced-fat options! If using thin frozen chicken breasts, change the cooking time to 10 minutes.
