Carla, I would start out at about the 13 minute range. I have had good luck with that for my larger instant pot. I do like mine a bit more tender and easier to shred. Let me know how it turns out. thanks so much

What about chicken tenders? How would you recommend cooking them?
Lindsaysays
I used 6 large chicken breasts and at 20 minutes they were still frozen together in spots. I would do at least 45 minutes for large frozen breasts when there are 6 or so.
Carriesays
You could do 10 minutes.
