These Must-Try Instant Pot Chicken Recipes are sure to help make your life run little smoother and help provide some tasty chicken dinners to your family! These recipes are mostly classic recipes adapted to work in your Instant Pot and all have beyond tasty flavors!
The Instant Pot craze hit this house last year and let me tell you, I’m a fan. A big fan! I’ve been scouring recipes like a mad woman the last 6 months, so I can keep making delicious meals for my family in the shortest amount of time possible! Our evenings can be crazy and I generally don’t get to make a time consuming meal during the week.
If you don’t have an Instant Pot yet, go do yourself the biggest favor and snag one. Dead serious — you won’t regret it! They have multiple sizes — for my family I generally used the 6 qt Instant Pot, but I also have a 8 qt Instant Pot and use it when making large roasts or food for a large gathering.

WHAT INSTANT POT SHOULD I BUY?
If you haven’t already ordered your Instant Pot, here are a few things to consider:
They have a few different sizes of Instant Pots. I use my 6-quart Instant Pot the most — it’s perfect for hard boiling eggs, cooking a roast to shred, sauces and more. But, I also love my 8-quart Instant Pot! I use it to do full meals that require all the ingredients — like a roast, with potatoes and Brussel Sprouts. I highly suggest you check out my Best Instant Pot Accessories Post for more information not only the accessories, but also a few of my favorite Instant Pots!
