Thanks for this chicken alfredo. Wanted to make but couldn’t find. THANKS
??? Can I add asparagus cut up in the instant pot of the chicken Alfredo??? Plez reply?!
Thank you!!
Does the chicken need to be thawed or can it go straight from freezer to the pressure cooker?
so yummy. this is a family favorite.
Mine kept saying burn and I did it exactly like the recipe with frozen chicken. What did I do wrong?
Oh no! Make sure that you put the broth in first and do not mix the ingredients together to prevent receiving the burn notice on the instant pot.
