Join the discussionWhat is meant by ‘1 pound quarter chicken’? 1 and 1/4 pounds?
Jane, that’s a great question. It means – 1 lb of chicken that’s been cut in quarters. Enjoy!
Why are the cooking times the same for frozen and not-frozen?
That’s the science (magic ?) of the Instant Pot!
Why is the cooking length for frozen the same as fresh?
That’s the science (magic ?) of the Instant Pot!
Do you need to take chicken out of gallon bag first before cooking?
Yes, you would need to remove the chicken from the freezer bag 🙂
IF I switched to all thighs, would that alter the cooking time?
Thighs typically take a little longer to cook. I add about 3-5 minutes to my cooking time for thighs.
I cooked his meal from frozen just as the directions say and the chicken was still raw and frozen in the middle. What did I do wrong?
How do I convert this meal to one serving portions re cooking time?
Hi Judy, I would check out our 201 Instant Pot Post for making cooking substitutions with your Instant Pot.
Below are some of our recommendations for times based on servings.
Average Cooking Times*
1-2 Servings: 5-10 minutes
3-4 Servings: 10-20 minutes
5-6 Servings: 15-25 minutes
7-8 Servings: 25-35 minutes
To increase your serving size for every 2 servings add 2 – 5 minutes
To decrease your serving size for every 2 servings subtract 2 – 5 minutes.
