Insert boneless, skinless chicken breasts into a versatile pressure cooking device like the Instant Pot.

Allow the pressure to build within the cooker for 10-15 minutes, depending on your specific model's needs.

Once the pressure has been released naturally, according to the manufacturer's guidelines, wait about 20 minutes.
