How to Make Keto Instant Pot Recipes

Most of these are going to focus on meat right? For chicken beef or pork you will need a bit of liquid in the pot to get it started. Under high pressure it will steam quickly to break down any connective tissues which means it will become fork tender. You likely will not be able to slice it, instead it will just fall apart which is ideal for most.

Typically 3/4 of a cup is adequate. If you read the users manual it may want to scare you into a minimum of 1 cup but that isn’t really true. Reason being is the meat will release juices which will add to the steaming liquids. If you want to make gravy with the drippings, you should use broth for your intro liquids and whisk in cornstarch later on to make that.

Ninja Foodi Keto Recipes

We’ve got more Instant Pot low carb dishes for you here too! Many are gluten free too or can be slightly altered to become so. Now if you have a Foodi you can make these all with the pressure cook button and lid that is not attached. You can also make any of our air fryer recipes too though with the lid that is attached as well.

Many of these can be made with a little tweak using that function that will give the outside of your food crisp. You will have to make the sauce(s) on the side with that of course but if you want a multitude of other choices this pot can come in really handy.

Here are some more easy pressure cooker keto recipes to try below too! Here’s a few more keto chicken Instant Pot recipes as well as a few using beef.
