Instant Pot Chicken and Dumplings | Pressure Cooker image

Pressure cooker recipe for Chicken and Dumplings. Very easy to modify to stove top cooking. This has become a family favorite, and is requested over Grandma's Pennsylvania Dutch recipe (shhhh). ** NEW NOTE**. This recipe was created with my small 2qt pressure cooker. You should adjust ingredient + liquid ratios depending on the size of your cooker. If dumplings are not cooked through for you - you may need to return your pot to pressure, or continue to boil uncovered. It just depends on your preferred method. (You can also boil dumplings on the side in chicken broth while the rest of the recipe is cooking under pressure).
