Make It Now Cooking Directions

These directions are for cooking this recipe to serve immediately and NOT to freeze for later.

  1. **Due to the nature of pressure cooking there is always room for inconsistency. The times given here are based on 4 servings fresh. If you are using more servings you may need to increase your cooking time.**
  2. Using the saute function, heat the orange juice and brown sugar in the inner pot until the sugar dissolves.
  3. Whisk in the season salt, salt, pepper, chipotle peppers and cook for 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the chicken breasts, then turn to cover well with sauce.
  5. Lock the lid in place and seal the steam vent.
  6. Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.
  7. Natural release for 5 minutes then quick release any remaining pressure.
  8. Change setting to saute to thicken sauce, if desired.

    1. Cindy, we would think so. However, there wouldn’t be a ton of liquid to work with, so we’d caution you to make sure it wouldn’t burn or dry out too fast. Maybe try cooking on low for 4-6 hours? If you do try it, and it turns out well, let us know!
