Instant Pot Ribs

These Instant Pot Ribs are the most tender and fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs, rubbed in spices and cooked in your pressure cooker. Finish them off on the grill or under the broiler for the best ribs ever!

I serve these amazing ribs with Garlic Parmesan Corn on the Cob and my Easiest Instant Pot Baked Beans for a perfect summertime dinner!

One of the most impressive meals you can make in your pressure cooker are definitely ribs! They are fall-off-the-bone delicious, and some even say that they are better than smoked or grilled ribs! This method makes cooking ribs faster, without sacrificing the flavor. My homemade BBQ spice rub is so easy to whisk up and most likely you already have the spices on hand. If you like, you can add 1/2 teaspoon of liquid smoke to the water/apple juice mixture for a right-off-the-grill flavor!

Instant Pot Lemon Chicken

This Instant Pot Lemon Chicken is an easy and affordable weeknight dinner made with chicken thighs, lemon and garlic. The chicken is juicy and flavorful and the whole dish is done in under 30 minutes!

I serve it with mashed potatoes because the gravy is absolutely delicious. You can also make quick Instant Pot Green Beans to serve on the side.

One of the most affordable cuts of chicken and one of the easiest to cook are thighs. They are more flavorful than chicken breast and easier to remain juicy once cooked. This Instant Pot Lemon Chicken is a perfect way to use them and make an easy dish that is bursting with flavor. After browning the thighs on both sides, you cook them in the pressure cooker for 7 minutes. The gravy is a delicious bonus too! Just add cornstarch to thicken it and pour over each chicken thigh when serving.

This Hunan Chicken is a colorful and flavorful dish made with chicken, vegetables and savory sauce. This dish is ready in 3 simple steps and ingredients can be adapted to what you have on hand.

The cooking method is similar to the Korean Chicken and perfect served with my fluffy rice.

Hunan chicken is a Chinese-American dish made with thinly-sliced and fried chicken and sauteed vegetables. In three simple steps, this dish is done and ready to be served: fry the chicken, saute veggies and simmer it all with a sauce. The sauce is savory, with a nice spicy kick from the chili sauce. You can use fresh vegetables and chop or slice them. If you really want to save on prep time, use a frozen Asian stir fry veggie mix. Most can be steamed in the microwave, then added to the pan and simmered with sauce. You can to serve it over rice or with noodles, or even in lettuce wraps.
