- 5 of the Best Things to make in an Instant Pot
There are so many great foods to make in your Instant Pot. Today I'm going to be sharing with you 5 different ways to use your Instant Pot.
#1: Caramelized onions--2 onions cut into chunks, 1 Tbsp butter, 1/4 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper. 8 minute pressure cook time with a quick release. Strain excess liquid.
#2: Quinoa--1 cup rinsed quinoa and 1.5 cups water. 1 minute cooking time with a 10 minute natural pressure release. Read the whole recipe here: www.365daysofcrockpot.com/ins...
#3: Whole Chicken--1 whole chicken, 1 cup water, 1 bay leaf, 2 Tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp dried rosemary, 1 tsp dried sage, 1/2 tsp dried thyme, 1 Tbsp kosher salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp garlic powder. 6 minute per pound (6 pound chicken will be 36 minutes) with a 10 minute natural pressure release.
#4: Dried beans--Quick soak method: add 1 pound of beans to Instant Pot. Add in 4 cups water. Bring to a boil on the saute setting. Once it is boiling cover the pot and set the pressure cook/manual button to 2 minutes. When time is up perform a quick release. Rinse and strain the beans, now they are "soaked."
#5: Soup and Chili--White chicken chili recipe (fine the whole recipe here: www.365daysofcrockpot.com/hom...)

Thank you for sharing your knowledge & expertise cooking with the instant pot. After I received my IP I searched google for IP recipes. I reached your site & learned how to cook with my IP. That led me to your RUclips channel & I am grateful for all of the information & recipes you give! You are an inspiration & so helpful to new & seasoned IP users! Thanks again!
I made #3 the Whole Chicken last night. EXCELLENT, super easy, threw a couple lemons and rosemary in the water and also more in the cavity. Braised chicken in 33 minutes (plus before and after time), can't be beat!
I just now discovered your channel and I am going on a 365 binge. You do great work!
Thank you for the recipes. All look great!
You're welcome Sandra!
You deserve my thanks, many, many, many times, if not for anything else, for showing me an easy way to make the onion soup.
Glad it was helpful to you!
thank you ~ good explanation and demonstration
Thinking of buying one so watching this was very helpful. Good recipes too !
Great recipes, thanks Karen!
You're welcome Barbara!
Thanks these are great ideas!
you're welcome Marcia!
Yum. Can't wait to try the chili
It's so yummy! I'm off to eat the leftovers now :)
Thank you. I'm a newbie. I like your video. I like your written recipe.
Glad you are here!
Great recipes and tips. Thanks,
You're welcome Paula!
Wow 🤩
Thank you😀😀😉😉
Nice!!! 😋
I made an easy tuna noodle casserole I just cooked my
Egg noodles in the instapot.
Then I added two cans of tuna in water drained and one can of cream of mushroom soup after I mix that all together I put it into individual glass bowls and covered it with American cheese. I put each container under the broiler for about 2 minutes until the cheese was melted and when cooled I put them in the refrigerator. I even put a few in the freezer when I wanted to heat them up I just put them in the microwave for a few minutes
Very nice video. I can tell I need to watch some of your others. I'll check out that chopping tool. My hubby doesn't care for shredded meat so that tool looks perfect.
With a thin metal blade, this handy Bench Scraper can be used to clean off cutting boards, loading vegetables and trimming into pans, and much more.
I am ecstatic aboht this Carmelized onion recipe’
It's a game changer!
Very nice! Onion was a surprise and been wanting to do the whole chicken. Thanks! Appreciate the bean cook times, but I still like to do the whole cook in one go.
Onion is a new thing for me too! It's so cool.
Those dishes are nice and I have to get around to making chili in my Instant Pot, but have cooked other chicken dishes in it and love those recipes.
Thanks!!
Nice job 👍 thanks for sharing
Thanks!
Thanks for the video, always enjoy it when you pop up in my feed.
Thanks Roger!
I just got my pot. This is so helpful. Thanks so much.
Yay! Did you watch my other videos? You might like my video how to use the instant pot: ruclips.net/video/EJd6dC5d62U/видео.html
I love making bean soup in my instant pot.
It's so much better than any other method!
Thank you for these great recipes!
You're welcome!
Broccoli cheddar soup is one of our favorites to make
Yum! me too :)
I just about cried seeing all the yummy onion juice discarded. Can use in place of veggie stock for soups.
Also, white bean chili is really a soup. Not enough peppers in that can to be chilli. I like to add roasted poblano peppers - if you want mild but flavorful.
Glad to have a simple recipe for quinoa. Never tried before but have wanted to make.
Yes I need to keep the onion juice next time! And the quinoa is so great :)
Great idea!!!! As Chef Ann Burrell calls her garbage bowl.... “Thank you for coming” Bowl” ...lo. Thank you
Oh Carmalized Onions - I Love Carmalized Onions! This is such a perfect delight. Thank You, Thank You.
Awesome. 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
It is so awesome!
Really like it, but I'm still learning!
Spaghetti, Boston Pork Butt for BBQ, Rice, Taco soup, and Spanish Chicken.
You got to love the Instant Pot Spaghetti, it is like Hamburger Helper but easier and no babysitting or stirring over the stove!
I like your list! What Spanish chicken recipe do you use? I want to try it :)
@@karenbellessapeterse Well, It's my sisters. Large can of diced or crushed tomatoes, a large can of tomato sauce, 1 jar Green olives, 1/2 TBS Capers, pieces of Chicken of your choice, 1/2 cup of water to thin out the sauce, No salt but pepper and oregano the chicken, tablespoon of oil to brown the chicken. Once browned add olives, capers, 1/2 can of tomato sauce, 1/2 cup of water. Pressure cook the chicken till done 12- 15 minutes, keep warm 2 minutes then vent steam add the rest of the ingredients make sure the temp gets up to 160º if it did cool down. We normally eat this over rice and use some of the liquid in the Spanish chicken about 1/2 liquid to 1/2 water for making rice. When making the rice don't be scared to have some olives in the liquid. I hope you give it a try. it's one of my favorites.
Hi, have you made a video on boiling pasta in Instant Pot. I cannot find it on your website. I remember commenting how perfect the pasta turned out. Thank you for your time.
Thanks. I’m not new to the Instant Pot but I have not seen a couple of these tips. Thee onions will be on my menu this week, for sure. Thanks again.
You're welcome Stefanie!
I like your videos. Try rosemary on the chicken and you'll be amazed how delicious it is! Rosemary is my favorite herb for seasoning chicken soup or roast chicken
The lid fits in the handle for stiring!
I marvel at your confidence with the Instant Pot, your enthusiasm and the infectious fun you have with the culinary expertise you’ve developed. So much so that I’ve subscribed to your videos, in the hope that I might develop the kind of relationship you have with this potentially versatile gadget.
To date, I’ve been asking myself wonderingly, if you pay heed to issues like GMF, the use of chemicals in ingredients used, the cholesterol content of recipes and similar concerns. I don’t seem to hear these mentioned. Your thoughts, please?
Hi Felix, hope you love your Instant Pot! It is a great tool! I do try to cook healthy-ish but no I don't typically talk about it much. I need to do better!
Just subscribed to your Chanel
Thank you, so far I like very much your teaching, just got a instant pot, and I’m ready to begin with your recipes. Thank you 😘
You're welcome Norma!
How much do instant pots run?? I cook most of my stuff in a crock pot. This looks like something to think about. Thanks for the recipes and sharing with us. Looking forward to seeing more videos.
Brand name they run around $100+. If you watch, you can catch them on sale or buy a off brand electric pressure cooker from $50+
Homemade broth/stock. Best use... makes better stock than any store bought & loads cheaper. Easy to modify for pho.
Do you store leftovers in your freezer? How long does it last in the fridge?
am wondering if you could share the times for all the beans, that would be so helpful. Thanks.
Hi Rebecca, if you go here I have a free printable chart of all the beans: www.365daysofcrockpot.com/5-best-ways-to-use-the-instant-pot/
How long to cook 2 1/4 pounds stew meat. Love your tips recipes
My favorite recently is an asian style beef soup that I serve with rice noodles. 40 minute dinner.
Wow that sounds tasty! What kind of beef do you use?
@@karenbellessapeterse Good old chuck roast, about 4lbs, diced into one inch cubes. Melts in the mouth.
Sounds yummy! What is your recipe? ~Anastacia in Cleveland
@@AnastaciaInCleveland Mostly eyeball it, or to taste...4 cups beef stock, gochujang(korean chile sauce),oyster sauce, soy sauce, garlic, onion, green onion, and fresh ginger- in addition to 4lbs beef chuck, cubed. Into the instant pot for 40 minutes on normal. I add blanched or steamed veggies at the end.
@@MrEric622 Thank you for the recipe!
Im relativity new with cooking with an Insta Pot, so i have a few questions. For the soaked beans, what is the amount of beans and how do you know when the water is boiling? Thank you!! Love your channel 💞
Using the Saute function, the machine will not allow you to put the lid on, so it won't be covered and you'll be able see when it's boiling
4:04 Quinoa
5:25 🐔
9:12 Beans
10:42 Chili
There is a slot on the side of the instant pot to put your lid instead of laying on the counter.
Denis Laurin yes I think she knows that
When I was on Weight Watchers, we all kept caramelized onions, and sautéed mushrooms, cooked on the ready all the time, bc they were “free” foods and were so good on so many things. Actually, still do!
I found your channel today and subscribed. I love what I’ve seen so far. I’ve been cooking with electric pressure cookers for over 20 years. I was frustrated with how long it took to make mashed potatoes for Thanksgiving dinner when using gas and a 16 qt stockpot-forever! I’ve had a few over the years and now I have an 8 qt Elite model, 6 qt Instant Pot and 4 qt Cooks Essentials. Even though I have been pressure cooking for years and have many cookbooks I know there is more to learn. Thank You! Looking forward to discovering your channel.
Oh and I love the fact that you’re cooking in your slippers! Lol
So glad you are here!
I Wonder about Green mung beans soaked, I couldn't find them on your list.
25-30 dry or 10-15 soaked :)
I’m making that chili. Just as soon as I can get to the store, to get the ingredients.
Did you get around to it?
@@parlayin yes. It was awesome.
@@barryfields2964 lol nice. Any recommended recipes for a new instant pot owner?
7:37 Did you know that you can buy ground bay leaves, that can be added to the herb mixture that you rub on the chicken, which will give much more flavor than a single bay leaf tossed in the bottom, where it will never come in contact with your chicken?
I was amazed to see a similar & substantial-looking "chicken chopping tool" (scraper) at the Dollar Tree. You can't even get them at that price at AliExpress or junk stores.
Nice! Good to know! Thanks for sharing. I love the dollar store.
I did Grab leave its best on it try it I stuff it with rice and meat and Arabic spice call seven spice is delicious
Thank you for an awesome video! I look forward to trying the recipes! Just checking...I'm assuming you pressure cooked the chicken on low, as "LO" showed on the control window. ???
No, sorry it was on high pressure. I use high pressure for all my recipes. The L means Lapsed time and indicates the pressure cook time is up.
@@karenbellessapeterse I didn't know this either. Thanks for filling us in!
Always have a garbage bowl I have a pretty Melanie Rachel Ray bowl, perfect size
do you make stuff with the air-fryer lid?
Every now and then! I need to do more :)
Chicken bone broth! 8 quart pot. Two rotisserie chickens w/breasts removed & reserved, chicken broth to cover, quarter cup of white wine, dry Italian seasoning or Herbes de Provence, one bay leaf. Pressure cook two hours on broth setting, 15 min. slow release, then quick release. You can simmer this broth down to any strength you want, including demi-glace. Thanks to Helen Rennie and Chef John for the idea!
Where do you get the chopper?
I ordered on amazon: amzn.to/2VxdlEv
I’m am new to using my instant pot and am not sure how much time to use for cooking meats. I’m also not sure how to convert a regular recipe to an instant pot recipe. Any suggestions?
Hi Debbie, my biggest advice for a new user is to follow tried and true recipes for a while until you get the hang of it and then start experimenting.
Does it come with some recipes? ?
You have to sort dried beans first, look for rocks, rinse well then start your beans.
Why the lentils don’t have soaked time? What do you suggest for cooking lentils?
Kta Westbrook Lentils don’t need to be soaked , just rinsed off. They cook much faster than beans. I put about 7 cups of water and one pound of lentils into the pot along with some chopped onion, carrots and celery, a bay leaf, some garlic powder and some onion powder and any other seasoning you like. I don’t add salt until after it’s cooked. Salt can toughen beans and lentils if you put it in from the beginning, so I add salt and pepper when the lentils are done. I have no measurements for the onion and garlic powder, I just sort of know how much to use. Pressure cook for 15 minutes and do natural release and you’re done.
Maggie May thanks 😊
@@ktawestbrook1937 yep they cook so fast! No need to be soaked.
@@maggiemay97 15 min for lentils it sounds too long time.
You throw out the onion water? For shame! Freeze it in a small container then the next time you make soup or stew add it in.
Oh shoot! I should have done that. Next time I will. Thanks for the tip!
Add it to the water for rice or quinoa too, yummmmm.
Oooops! I forgot the baking soda. Also, I got BURN in my 3 quart even though there was a ton of steam, so I would recommend either sautéing on a lower heat, or letting the pot cool off a bit before pressure cooking. Of course, it you might use the six quart -- I used my 3 twice and got BURN twice.
TIP: If your chicken comes with innards and you discard them before cooking, be sure to account for that weight being removed. Her chicken was 6 lbs before they were removed so it was likely overcooked by 3-6 minutes depending on the weight of what was removed.
Good to know! Thanks for sharing this Jennifer.
Six Sisters you could make Chicken Stock with the neck and other organs. Js
Do you have a source for purchasing food-safe, disposable gloves?
Hi Sharon I usually purchase mine from amazon: amzn.to/3aejcCP
I would check the Dollar Tree. Since I've bought my IP, I've been collecting cooking tools. I was astounded what you can get at the Dollar Tree.I also source AliExpress but now , with the new epidemic, I'm not sure if it's safe to buy from China.
@@googlehater3079 great tip on Dollar Tree for kitchen stuff. Their stores appear better organized than other chains in my area.
What I have read is Covid19 does not survive on surfaces for very long. Do your own research to verify.
With the global economy, many of the items that you buy from your local stores may come from a country with the virus anyway.
COVID-19 last at least 9 days on surfaces that haven't been disinfected.
@@Jomama02 the stuff at the dollar stores would be sent here by sea freight then transhipped by the wholesalers and other middle-men. Sea freight typically takes over a month so that is plenty of time for the Covid19 virus to become inactive.
your "chopper" is called a bench scraper :)
My biggest question is why put in cooking time manually when the food category time is listed on the pot? I see this quite a bit.
I have yet to see ANY recipes using the preset buttons on the Instant pot...they all use the manual/pressure cook setting. Even the Instant pot website doesn't use them. I really think that they are all bogus!
I like to put in the time that I want on a recipe, not a pre-set time. They don't always work the way they should. I know the thickness of the meat I'm using, but the pot doesn't. Does that make sense. The other reason is a write recipes and many pots don't have the exact same buttons so I want everyone to be able to make my recipes.
I am not understanding why you would not put that seasoned chicken in the oven and have the opportunity to make gravy. I think the cooking time for a 6 lb chicken would be 1 1/2 hours. I remain to be convinced. I remember when the microwave came on the scene and everything including muffins were touted to be made in the microwave. Fast forward 40 years and for what is the microwave used?
cdLady54 Marengo and Craftbunny I had wondered the same thing so I just started using the preset functions on my own and lo & behold I was very happy with the results. Also I figured out that the 8 qt Instant Pot cooks at a hotter and therefore faster temperature than the 6qt. It’s actually written right on the manual that came with it: 3qt (mini) is 700watts; 6qt is 1000watts; and the 8 qt is 1200watts. I wondered why certain foods were over cooked when following recipes until I went back to check the manual and realized that those extra 200watts on my 8qt were the reason why! The presets work well for me especially with meats/chicken. Also, another RUclipsr suggested using Low Pressure to cook delicate foods like eggs and fish which have resulted in perfect eggs and fish for my 8qt. I think it was “Flo Lum” or something like that.
@@lorip3136 thanks so much!
Enjoy your tips. Just curious if you ever used the "boil" setting that’s you can get by hitting the yoghurt selection (if you have that option on your instant pot). It seems like then you don’t have to check when the beans have come to a boil because the instant pot display will the words boil.
Does it make a difference if you use a 3 qt Instant pot for the onions? Or just the recipe as is?
I have the same question! ~Anastacia in Cleveland
Great video. I loved the use of a scraper for the chicken chopping. Please do not use a wooden board for chicken or meats. It is possible to get really sick as a result, especially people on chemo or older folks.
Please.
My insta pot collects dust on my counter. Wish I knew someone who wants it!
Where do you live? I would take it....
It’s worth it even if you only make stock. Bones, veggies, 2 hours and the best stock ever.
How much lol??
I’m sure by now you have a home for it, if not. Text me
Disappointed to see you put the onion skins, onion water and chicken pieces in the "garbage". I have a bag in my fridge's freezer that I add veggie scraps to ... including onion peels ... no potato peels though. Once I figure I have enough scraps I fire up my IP and make veggie broth (put veggie scraps in IP and add enough water to cover). I set my IP to at least 30 minutes. Strain. Place in mason jars. Label and freeze. Pretty much do the same with the chicken pieces ... including cooked bones, skin. Nothing is wasted. Money is saved.
Good idea! Thanks for sharing Dee :)
Throughout the entire video I was saying save those skins, water, and the chicken innards and bones. Great for bone broth!
Wow comes in hand. Never thought of doing that. Great idea, thanks.
Please add closed captions. :/
I need to figure out how to do this lol!
@@karenbellessapeterse
Oh okay, from my understanding you can either write transcript to be send to have closed caption or use the "automatic closed caption. The latter is not better though if you truly care for Deaf! 💜 community.
I just finished making the caramelized onions and I did everything you said and they’re just a bowl of mush. What a waste of good onions.
Meats and roasts please carnivore fatty meats ...not sure on time and temp and liquid....thanks so much

You're supposed to rinse out the chicken cavity to remove blood and bone bits after removing the innards. BTW, those are used for making giblet gravy.
The problem with that is that rinsing raw poultry in the sink for a lot of people ends up spraying droplets of juices over a remarkably large area.
@@AlanMillerFencepost Then you wipe down the area with a bleach solution or disinfecting solution. You should ALWAYS clean your meats but especially whole chickens as they don't always get all the innards out of the crevices. I will wash meat with lemon, lime or vinegar. It doesn't take much and doesn't affect taste.
That why I don’t eat from nobody the bit didn’t even clean the dam chicken nasty 🤢
Vocal fry ! Had to turn it off
Ridiculous comment, please go away
Why aren't you washing your chicken? You should be washing it out with cold water. There is a lot of bacteria inside and outside a bird. Even if you don't want to eat those "gross" things that come in the chicken, you should cook them in the pot with the chicken to make your broth so much more flavorful and rich. But WASH your meat before cooking it! All meat should be washed except ground meat.
You should compost. Not just throw it in the trash. Suburban moms are the worst.
