How Do I Use an Instant Pot?

If you are new to the Instant Pot you will definitely want to take the time to go over the user’s manual and become familiar with all of the settings. There are a few key features you will need to know to make the best out of using your new pressure cooker. Here are a few of the features you will want to make sure to familiarize yourself with:

  • Sauté mode
  • Manual cook
  • Soup
  • Sealing and venting

While your pressure cooker has many other features, these are the ones I find I use the most. Make sure you read your user’s manual in its entirety before beginning anything with the Instant Pot.

Lastly, make sure your chicken is always fully cooked. Chicken should be fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

We hope you enjoy these recipes as much as we do. If you love this list, make sure you pin it and save it for future reference!
