Chicken Breasts with the Bone-In are incredibly flavorsome, even when cooked in a short amount of time in the Instant Pot they keep the full flavor and juciness! Use whatever seasoning blend you like, we recommend using a blend with cajun spice! Recipe Tips: If your chicken pieces are either very large or quite small, you might have to adjust the cooking time. To be sure the chicken is thoroughly cooked, use an instant-read thermometer. The minimum safe temperature for poultry is 165 F. If using frozen split chicken breasts, pressure cook for 25 minutes.
