Notes
- To cut chicken tenders, start with boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the chicken breast against the grain into tenders of equal length and thickness.
- Brown the chicken in the Instant Pot using the saute function. This step is optional but will lock in the juices and make the tenders more flavorful.
- Be sure to cook the chicken on a trivet or it will burn.
- Making chicken tenders in Instant Pot is a great way to use leftover chicken breast.
- Always check for doneness with a meat thermometer. The temperature should be 165F / 74C when inserted into the thickest part of chicken breasts.
- There are 0 WW Blue Plan SmartPoints in one serving of this.
