Join the discussionMy first meal and it was a bust! Now that I’m checking it out, the directions are the same whether it’s from frozen or fresh! I ended up adding chicken stock because there is NO liquid in this recipe and cooked it for 9 minutes 3 times. Yikes! I hope the other ones in my freezer work better than this!
I am sorry that it did not work for you. Typically IP meals do not have to add time when frozen (or not much time). If you ever have questions feel free to pop in the chat on the site and we can help!
Are the chicken breasts supposed to be cut into quarters?
Hi Helen, yes, the chicken breasts are supposed to be cut into quarters. This helps them to cook through more evenly.
