  • When the pressure cooking is complete quick release the pressure by carefully moving the pressure release valve to the VENT position
  • Carefully remove the lid when the unit has finished releasing pressure

  • Cook until the desired level of crispness has been reached adding up to 5 additional minutes
  • The USDA recommends cooking chicken to 165 degrees as measured in the thigh. I like to cook my chicken until it reaches 170 degrees in the thigh.

  • The juices in the bottom of the cooking pot make a delicious sauce.
