Join the discussionDid a anyone end up with very sour green beans?
Melissa – I made this recipe and didn’t have sour green beans at all.
Made this tonight and doubled the recipe so I could freeze half. I only used a half cup of oil for 4p of chicken though and it was more than enough!! Also chucked it on the grill instead of on the beans. Kids loved it!!
Do you have to defrost the chicken before cooking from Frozen?
Yes, in the fridge.
Can this be cooked in instant pot?
I’m sure it could, but you would not want to cook the green beans for the entire time as the chicken, or they would be mushy. I typically add my vegetables during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking in a steaming basket on top.
Hi Foodies!!! how long in the pressure cooker?
We’ve never tried this in the Instant Pot so we can’t say for sure, but this post has lots of great tips to help you adapt a recipe for the IP – https://onceamonthmeals.com/blog/series/instant-pot/instant-pot-tips-tricks-201/.
I know this is probably stupid. BUT… do I put the chicken and marinade in one bag.. Beans in another? Or do I put 1/2 green beans in each bag and then the chicken and marinade over the top of the beans?
Hi Debby — Great question. Yes, you put the chicken and marinade in one freezer bag and you put the beans in another.
