Em e rg e ncy Chi ck e n o r Pork D i nne r w ith Sa uce
O ne of the great things about a pressure cooker is that you can cook food directly
from the freezer w ithout tha w ing it first. For this recipe, you can use frozen chick en
brea sts or frozen pork chops. M y r ule of thumb is, if it is frozen, a dd ten minutes for
every inch of thickness. For
1
/ 2 inch frozen chicken brea sts or chops the mea l w ill be
rea dy in 1 5 minutes. If fresh, just cook them for 1 0 minutes. You ca n use your
fa vorite canned sa uce or gra vy w ith this recipe.
