In reply to Jess. Hi Jess - you can use chicken tenders. I would reduce the cook time to 3 minutes for tenders. Enjoy!

Can tenderloins be used instead of thick breast?

I love this recipe! Great family meal and a good way to sneak in more veggies to the kid. I throw in some peas or other veggies into the sauce, I only make it with one chicken breast.

Hi Lisa – Glad your family enjoyed it! You’ll have the 1 can (14 ounces) chicken broth in addition to the liquid the chicken releases as it cooks. Once you’ve thickened the broth with the cornstarch slurry and added the cheeses, it does thicken up without removing any of the liquid. If you want it even thicker, you could add additional cornstarch slurry.

Very tasty, in spite of huge mistakes I made! I started with frozen chicken breasts, which I placed on top of the sautéed onions. I was making pot-in-pot rice, but I think I misread the recipe and added too much chicken broth to the pot with the chicken. I covered the rice with tin foil, and pressure cooked for 15 minutes. The chicken was floating in soup, but the rice was fine. So I took out the chicken and poured off most of the liquid. I followed the rest of the recipe as written. The sauce was very thick, and I added some of the broth back in. Maybe I was supposed to leave all that liquid(?) Anyway, the family gobbled it up!

In reply to Danielle. Hi Danielle - you can double this recipe in a 6 quart pressure cooker. It will take longer to come to pressure, so I would decrease the cook time to 2 minutes. Enjoy!

Can you double this recipe? How big of an Instant Pot would you need for that, and would it affect the times?

In reply to Andrew Gay. No - just 3 minutes total. Be sure you Instant Pot says hot before adding the chicken so it browns quickly.

In reply to misty heller. Do you cook the chicken for 3 minutes on each side?
