Instructions

  1. 1

  2. 2

    Lock the lid in place and make sure the valve is set to "sealing". Set the manual pressure cook button to 10 minutes for fresh chicken or 12 minutes for frozen chicken. Let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes and then release the rest of the pressure by moving the valve to "venting".

  3. 3

    Remove the lid and shred the chicken, if desired. Stir in the cream cheese until it is melted.

  4. 4

    Serve chicken and sauce over rice or egg noodles.
