Emergency Chicken or Pork Dinner with Sauce
One of the great things about a pressure cooker is that you can cook food directly
from the freezer without thawing it first. For this recipe, you can use frozen chicken
breasts or frozen pork chops. My rule of thumb is, if it is frozen, add ten minutes for
every inch of thickness. For
1
/
2
inch frozen chicken breasts or chops the meal will be
ready in 15 minutes. If fresh, just cook them for 10 minutes. You can use your
favorite canned sauce or gravy with this recipe.
Serves: 6
4 to 6

inch frozen or fresh chicken breasts or pork chops
1 15-ounce can tomato sauce or your favorite gravy
Salt and pepper to taste
Add the meat and the tomato sauce or gravy, and set the cooker to
High
(15.0P) for 15
minutes (see pages 6-7 for instructions). Cover and press
Start/Off
button. Let the
pressure release naturally, about 5 minutes. Place breasts or chops on a plate and cover
with sauce or gravy. Season to taste, garnish with scallion flowers and serve.
