Dump and Start Instant Pot 3 Packet Chicken

Equipment

  • Pressure Cooker - Instant Pot

Ingredients
  

  • 3.5 lbs Chicken We like chicken breasts but you can use dark meat also
  • 1 Packet Ranch Salad Dressing & Seasoning Mix dry powder
  • 1 Packet Italian Dressing Mix dry powder
  • 1 Packet Chicken Gravy Mix
  • 1 & 1/2 Cup Chicken Broth

Instructions
 

  • First, place 1 & ½ cup of chicken broth into your Instant Pot.
  • Next add your chicken breast to your Instant pot.
  • Then sprinkle your three packets on top of your meat.
  • Next, close the lid and turn the steam release valve to the “sealing” position.
  • Then press the “Pressure Cook” button.  Next, press the “Pressure Level” button until you have selected “High Pressure”.
  • Turn the timer on for about 30 minutes if you have 3.5 lbs. of chicken breast. We use the Instant Pot guide which states 6-8 minutes of high pressure per pound of chicken breast. 
    Our chicken breasts were thick so we rounded up from 28 – 30 minutes.  Once the pressure builds up, the timer will start counting down.
  • Once the timer has completed let it do a natural release of pressure.  Which means do not open the venting valve.  It will naturally release the pressure on its own in about 20-30 minutes.
  • After all the pressure has released you can open the Instant Pot and serve!
