Fall Off the Bone Wings in the Instant Pot
Do you want fall off the bone wings in less than 15 minutes? Amazingly juicy, tender, saucy… great for dipping in ranch dressing? Then, grab your Instant Pot and get to cooking! Chicken wings were the first thing I ever made in my Instant Pot – talk about jumping in feet first!
I had never used a pressure cooker before. The only time I was ever around one was at my grandma’s house – and I lifted the lid to see what was inside. Steam. Hot steam. Pressure cookers have come a long way since then… and if you don’t have one yet, you definitely need to buy one! And yes, they are much safer now. Ready to make some finger lickin’ wings?
