I knew you'd come out swinging in this thread!!IP Chicken Piccata
INGREDIENTS:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1.5 – 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
Salt and pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup chicken stock (see note)
1/2c white wine
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 jar (4 oz) capers, drained
DIRECTIONS:
Heat Instant Pot to Saute and add oil. Salt and pepper both sides of the chicken and add to hot Instant Pot. Brown chicken for about 4 minutes on each side and then remove to a plate.
Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly for about 1 minute or until fragrant.
Add broth, lemon juice, oregano, and basil and scrape any brown bits off the bottom of the Instant Pot. Return chicken to Instant Pot and sprinkle capers on top.
Put cover on (make sure vent is turned to “seal”). Set Instant Pot to Manual for 10 minutes.
Once done, quick release the pressure. Use an instant read thermometer and ensure chicken has an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Serve chicken with sauce in pan.
It's a digital pressure cooker. Super easy to use and takes minutes instead of hours to cook things.How is the instant pot different from a crock pot?

For example, I can cook a 7lb roast in the instant pot in an hour and a half. It comes out more tender and packed full of flavor then a crock.
Just put it in. Dial the time in and leave it. Once time is over it just goes to a warming temp so it won't burn if you forget it.
What Monte said. 3 weeks ago I didn't even know what an instant pot was. Well, MsJD got me one for Christmas. At first I thought do I really need a crock pot? The Instant Pot is way more then a crock pot. It's a programmable pressure cooker, slow cooker (crock pot), rice maker, steamer, saute', and warmer. I love this thing! As Monte alluded to meals that take hours in a crock pot take minutes in the IP. A chili recipe I use that takes 4-6 hours in a crock pot, takes only 35 minutes in the IP, and tastes even better. I always thought jasmine rice cooked in a covered saute skillet came out fine. Until I tried it in the IP. You add rice and water, seal and lock the lid, and set pressure cook time, and forget about it. When it's done it automatically turns off and switches to Keep Warm mode. Perfect fluffy rice every time. Highly recommended.
Great idea for a thread.
Correct. You can slow cook in the IP like a crock pot, but it's the pressure cooking that makes it shineThanks for info... so regular crock pot is not programmable and does not use pressure.
Remember those old Metal pots with the lid that you lock into place with the hook snaps on the side and when it got hot that little stem rattled its ass off until you opened it?Thanks for info... so regular crock pot is not programmable and does not use pressure.
