How to Cook Chicken Leg Dinner in an Instant Pot
Aunt Lou here.
Sometimes you need a recipe that cooks all day, and sometimes you need recipe that can be thrown together quickly and be done quickly. If you find yourself in the former situation, you can try out Cris’ All Day Crock Pot Chicken Leg Dinner. However, if you forgot to put that delicious recipe on in the morning, you can use this recipe to throw it together quickly! No matter what cooking time you need, we have you covered!
Instant Pot Chicken Leg Dinner Notes:
- If you live in an area where fresh rosemary is not available, like me, then you can omit it. However, if you are fortunate enough to have it available, I highly recommend using it!
- The broiling step is to help crisp up the skin. That is totally up to you and your preference. However, you will want to watch it continually. Do NOT walk away from your oven. The broiler can take a recipe from perfection to disaster in a blink of an eye! And we all want perfection!

- As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
- Finally, all electric pressure cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own electric pressure cooker and time adjusted as needed.
