25+ Instant Pot Frozen Chicken Recipes
Chicken Enchilada Casserole from Wondermom Wannabe – Our kids love enchiladas and this is a quick way to make them without heating up the house. (I do try to make it with this very mild enchilada sauce for my spice-sensitive kids.)
Chicken Caesar Wraps from Foody Schmoody – Chicken wraps are a quick and delicious meal that everyone loves! This is a great one that uses frozen chicken to start with.
Spicy Sweet and Sour Chicken from Aunt Bee’s Recipes – This one is SO tasty! I usually omit the onions and use powdered ginger instead of fresh. It hits the spot when you want food with an Asian taste!
Chicken Fajitas from Eat at Home – Chicken fajitas are my personal favorite Mexican food. They’re easy to whip up in a hurry with an Instant Pot and some frozen chicken!
Cilantro Lime Chicken Tacos from Belle of the Kitchen – In that same vein, quick and tasty tacos like this are a big crowd-pleaser, too!
Lemon Pepper Chicken with Broccoli & Tomatoes from Reuse Grow Enjoy – I like this quick and easy chicken with veggies. You could do the same with other veggies, too, for a fresh meal.
Chicken Noodle Soup from Balancing Motherhood – Want chicken soup for a cold day or to nurse the sniffles? This is a fantastic way to make it fast with frozen chicken!
Chicken Burrito Bowls from My Crazy Good Life – Gotta love burrito bowls! Everyone will be happy with this tasty and fast meal.
Teriyaki Chicken from Keeping It Simple – I used to have a teriyaki chicken bowl often when I was working outside the home. Sometimes I still crave it, and this does the trick!
Buffalo Chicken from Eat the Gains – I LOVE making a pot of buffalo chicken and then having it on salads. This is a simple one to use with frozen chicken!
Chicken Chili with No Beans from By Pink – Of course, you can add some canned beans to this as well, even if just at the end and then simmering until heated through. 🙂
Chicken Pasta from Live Laugh Rowe – We often make beefy pasta in the Instant Pot, but this chicken pasta recipe is also tasty and is made quickly!
Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Soup from Cents’ Able Shoppin – I like how easy and simple this is. A great recipe for chilly days, especially!
Buffalo Chicken Bites from My Crazy Good Life – These are fun to make alongside veggies and blue cheese dip for a healthy appetizer!
Chicken Salsa Soup from This Pilgrim Life – Such a simple recipe with just a few ingredients (especially if you leave out the onions like we do) and this is another great option!
Buttery Lemon Chicken from Mama Instincts – SUCH a delicious and fancy-looking meal. This is a great one to bring out for company!
Honey Garlic Chicken from The Flavours of Kitchen – This is a great one to serve with rice and sesame seeds to garnish. There are instructions included for using frozen chicken!
Chicken Parmesan from By Pink – Who doesn’t love chicken parmesan!? Another company-ready dish that is easy to make with this Instant Pot frozen chicken recipe.
Chicken and Stuffing from I Save A to Z – I don’t think it ever occurred to me to make stuffing on a non-Thanksgiving day. 🤔 Going to have to try this one!
Skinny Garlic Chicken from Everyday Shortcuts – Here’s another one I make often, but with dried or pre-diced garlic because I’m lazy like that. Lol. Having several of these on hand for salads, with rice and veggies, or for pita sandwiches is really helpful for busy days.
Salsa Chicken Tacos from Aileen Cooks – More tacos! Nom nom nom.
Insta-Chicken from flavorrd – Another one that’s great to make ahead and use for all kinds of things! Over rice, with tacos, in sandwiches, on salads, etc.
Chicken Alfredo from ePressureCooker.com – Here’s a tasty pasta dish that you can use frozen chicken with!
Orange-Ginger Chicken from Our Best Bites – Every time my kids watch or read Paddington we end up with unused marmalade. 😆 This is a great way to use it!
Mexican Tamales from Cents’ Able Shoppin – I really want to try this! My best friend growing up was hispanic and I had the best tamales at her house. Of course, I probably can’t make them as good as they did, but it would be nice to have them at home sometimes!
Chicken Pot Pie Soup from Aileen Cooks – A great recipe for comfort food, made easy by using frozen chicken!
Pulled Tandoori Chicken from Rebooted Mom – Indian food?! Yes, please! Another on my to-try list.
