It happens every single week – I glance over at the time and I should have fed my kids about 30 minutes ago. Our week days are so chaotic! Thankfully my Instant Pot is damn good at saving my butt and helping me get my kids fed. What other kitchen device can go from frozen to dinner on the table in under an hour? My Instant Pot is my sanity saver and in our home chicken meals are by far my kids favorite (that should read – my kids will eat chicken for dinner without a battle…)

Chicken Masala is fantastic with bastami rice and naan bread. Actually, most of the time when I make this at home I completely skip the rice and just eat it with naan bread…I might be slightly addicted to naan 😉 When I make this for the kids they prefer just a simple white rice. If you would like to make your rice in the Instant Pot we have two simple tutorials you can follow: This chicken masala (or butter chicken in some circles) is extremely easy to make and a family friendly meal. If your kids have not yet tried Indian food, chicken masala is a great dish to introduce to them. While chicken masala is “spicy” it is not spicy in the sense of hot. Instead it is filled with savory rich creamy flavors that most kids will love. When we first introduced butter chicken to my kids they were a bit hesitant. Now chicken tikka masla is frequently requested here. And cooking chicken masala in the pressure cooker couldn’t be easier! Alrighty y’all, let’s get cooking!

Instant Pot Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches

If you love buffalo chicken, then you must try these Instant Pot Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches! These quick chicken sandwiches are full of flavor and fun! I absolutely love quick and easy recipes, and this buffalo chicken recipe is exactly that. I love that there are less than 5 ingredients in this recipe – chicken, Frank’s hot sauce, and ranch seasoning mix. The buffalo shredded chicken is also great on more than just sandwiches! I love this shredded chicken on top of salads and my kids love them in wraps or in quesadillas. But, be warned – this buffalo chicken definitely comes with a kick. When I make these for my kids I add in 1/2 stick of butter or 1 package of cream cheese to bring the spice down a bit. You could also ease up on the amount of wings sauce or give a milder sauce a try. Buffalo Wild Wings has a fantastic flavor pack with some milder options – we love the Asian Zing! Alrighty y’all, let’s get cooking!

Instant Pot Thai Peanut Chicken Recipe

This Instant Pot Thai Chicken recipe is one of the most requested dinners in our house. I never in a million years expected my kids. When it comes to this recipe there are a couple tricks to keep in mind. When cooking in a pressure cooker, meals can come out a tad on the watery side. This can be caused because of many different reasons, and this recipe has no exception. I have found that we tend to run into this when we use good chicken. One trick to combat a watery pressure cooker meals is to cook in rice or pasta after you have cooked your meal. This tends to be what I do whenever I open our Instant Pot lid and dinner looks too watery. However, this trick is one that you need to be able to eyeball, so if you are new to pressure cooking I wouldn’t recommend it as there is a really high chance that you will end up with crunchy rice or noodles. An easier trick is to add in some cornstarch after cooking your meal. And AFTER is key. If you try to include cornstarch before cooking you will end up with a burn notice. To do this simply add in a tablespoon at a time, after cooking, and mix it in. Or for an even easier option, you could just simply boil the excess water off by stirring constantly while on sauté mode until the liquid is reduced.

Ingredients

2 T. sesame oil
2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2/3 c. chicken broth
¼ c. sugar-free peanut butter
¼ c. gluten-free soy sauce or coconut aminos
2 T. fresh lime juice
2 T. honey, preferably local
1½ T. Sriracha sauce
2 t. fresh ginger
1 t. garlic powder
Sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Garnish:

Fresh cilantro, chopped
½ c. roasted peanuts, chopped
3-4 green onions, cut into thin slices

Instructions

Add sesame oil to Instant Pot and set the “Sauté” setting to high. Working in batches, if necessary, brown the chicken thighs, approximately 3-4 minutes per side. Repeat this process with remaining thighs. Remove and set aside on a platter.
Pour chicken broth into hot container and gently scrape up brown bits from bottom. Add peanut butter to the hot liquid and stir until completed melted. Add soy sauce, lime juice, honey, Sriracha sauce, ginger, and garlic powder. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and stir to combine.
Add metal rack to the Instant Pot and place the browned chicken thighs on top.
Add lid and lock into place. Switch vent to “Sealing” position and set the “Manual” setting on high before adjusting the cook time to 10 minutes. After a brief pause, the Instant Pot will automatically start building pressure.
When finished, do a quick release (QR) to allow the pressure to escape. Unlock and carefully remove lid when finished and transfer the chicken to a platter.
Optional: To thicken sauce, select the “Sauté” setting and heat, stirring continually, until the excess liquid is reduced and the sauce reaches the desired consistency.
Turn Instant Pot off and return the chicken thighs and the juices that accumulated on the platter to the sauce and turn to coat.
Remove chicken and transfer to a serving tray. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, chopped peanuts, and green onions, if desired. Serve immediately with extra peanut sauce and your favorite sides. Enjoy

One item though that you cannot leave out is the Tony Chacheres Creole Seasoning. It definitely adds a depth of flavor that you shouldn’t skip!

When it comes to picking sides to serve this dip with, the sky’s the limit. Some of our favorites are:

Celery Sticks
Fritos Scoops
Pita Chips

Club Crackers
Ritz Crackers
French Bread
Pretzel Sticks

Really you can pair it well with just about any chip and some veggies! My kids even like this on cucumbers…I haven’t been brave enough to try that though?

When it comes to picking out a hot sauce for this instant pot buffalo chicken dip, just about any hot sauce will work. I stick to Frank’s Hot Sauce because it has been tried and approved by my family, but y’all can definitely play around with different brands.

Instant Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup

Inside: Kick your feet up, relax, and welcome summer with this easy to make Chicken Taco Soup. If you ask us, this is the best

Anyways, while on vacation we went to this little hole in the wall restaurant (the best types to find when you are on vacation) and I had the most heavenly bowl of chicken taco soup.

It was so good that when I finally got back home to the frozen north and started craving a warm Tex-Mex soup, I knew I needed to recreate it.

And so I tried to make this Tex-Mex chicken soup in my pressure cooker, and the first couple of times it was a total flop. The texture was right but the flavor was just missing something.

Then I realized I was cooking without cilantro.

Y’all that’s like failing Tex-Mex 101.

Seriously, cilantro.

Then came round two, and viola, we had nailed down the Instant Pot chicken tortilla soup recipe!

Alrighty y’all, enough of my rambling. Let’s get cooking

Ingredients

For the Soup:

6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons butter, unsalted
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 can Fire-roasted Rotel tomatoes, or regular Rotel Tomatoes *See note
1 can (10 ¾ ounces) beef broth
1 can (10 ¾ ounces) chicken broth
1½ cups water
1½ cups tomato juice
3-4 cups cubed cooked chicken
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Juice from ½ lime
2 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
1 tablespoon bottled steak sauce
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can corn
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

To Serve:

Squeeze of fresh lime juice
Tortilla chips or strips
Fresh cilantro, chopped
Sour Cream
Avocado Slices

Instructions

For the Soup:

Set the Instant Pot to Sauté. After 1 minute, add the diced onion and cook until the onion has softened and is translucent. Add the minced garlic and set the Instant Pot to Keep Warm/Cancel.
Set the chicken thighs on top of the onion/garlic mixture and add all the remaining soup ingredients on top of the chicken.
Set the Instant Pot to SOUP and adjust the timer to 10 minutes with a 10-minute natural release. After 10 minutes of natural release, place a clean dishcloth over the valve and turn the valve to quick release. When the red button (float valve) goes down, the lid is safe to open.
Use tongs to transfer the meat to a cutting board and cut the chicken into 1-inch chunks (or use two forks to shred the chicken).
Add the chicken back to the soup and serve.
