Join the discussionCould this be done in the instapot on cooking day?
It certainly could be adapted for the Instant Pot. Here’s a great post that gives lots of tips on making recipe adaptations in the Instant Pot: https://onceamonthmeals.com/blog/series/instant-pot/instant-pot-tips-tricks-201/
Please report back with your recipe if you try it!
I found instructions on freezing the chili in a zip lock bag inside a round bowl that will fit nicely in the instapot (remove bowl once frozen). On serve day, place the chili in the instapot, add 1 to 2 cups of broth, and select “Chili” (30 minutes). Directions say it should take about 23 minutes to reach pressure and then 30 minutes of cooking for a total of about 53 minutes.
Would it be ok to not cook the chicken before freezing with other ingredients? Then shred after it is cooked?
You can certainly try it that way but we have not tested this recipe using raw chicken to guarantee the cooking times.
Do you have to cook the chicken prior to freezing everything together?
Yes you do, this recipe calls for COOKED and DICED chicken.
So, after 4-8 hours in the crock pot the chicken WILL be cooked regardless. So i think it would work. I might try it, but just check with a meat thermometer to be safe.
