This was a big hit at our table tonight! Absolutely delicious. It was so easy and I used frozen chicken since I forgot to defrost. lol. I love the instant pot! It sat on my shelf for years until I came across your YouTube videos. Thank you for making it so easy to understand. Now I’m using it several times a week now. 😁
We love hearing Instant Pot success stories! So glad that our Youtube videos have helped and that the IP Mississippi Chicken Sandwiches were a hit!
I’m a wimp when it comes to spicy foods. Does the pepperoncinis make this a spicy dish?
They do not make it spicy, they add a delicious flavor.
