Some Common Questions Asked About This Recipe

Can I Use Both Chicken Thighs and Chicken Drumsticks In This Recipe?

Yes, that would work out perfectly. The total weight of the chicken equals 2 pounds.  If you want to add any more than two pounds, you may have to increase the cooking time. 

How Do You Cook Drumsticks In Instapot?

Set the chicken into the pressure cooker and set the Poultry or Manual Setting on High Pressure for 22 minutes. When the pressure cooker time is done, let the pressure naturally release, for 15 minutes, and then do a quick release.

To get even more flavor, place the drumsticks on a foil-lined cookie sheet, brush some sauce on the drumsticks and broil for 2 to 3 minutes.

How Do You Cook Frozen Drumsticks In An Instant Pot?

Start by adding a cup of water to the Instant Pot bowl, and then add the frozen chicken drumsticks on top of the trivet. Set the manual high pressure for 12 minutes.  Then do a natural release. 

If you want extra flavor, brush the drumsticks with BBQ sauce and then place them under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes.

This makes a great meal, and if you have an air fryer, you can prepare the entire dinner without the help of the stove:
