Instant Pot Potato Salad

  4.7 – 6 reviews  • Red Potato Salad Recipes

Every mouthful of chicken is juicy and vibrant thanks to a fantastic combination of bold and subtle flavors that are incorporated into the meat during cooking. As ‘lively’ as the flavor is, it also works well as a winter comfort food. I prefer to make the chicken slightly hot so that it will soften out just enough when it is served with a side of gently flavored couscous. creates a pleasant aroma around the house!

Everyone enjoyed it. I felt it needed more mayonnaise and I also added more seasonings. Not sure why others had issues with the IP time, I actually used 3.5 lbs of potatoes and 6 eggs and everything came out perfect! I am using an 8 qt. pot. I have noticed time differences between my 8 & 6 qt. IP’s maybe that’s the problem.

My first potato salad I made it for a party. Kids and adults kept asking for more salad, so it was a hit. My alterations: HP for 6min, Yukon Gold potatos, Vinegar for the relish Used Dijon for 1/3 of mustard A small squirt of cezar salad dressing added an egg

This recipe was great! Although I ended up using a small regular onion just because I didn’t have any green onions at the time. I’m probably not going back to stovetop method for potato salad again

Needed more time in the instant pot but other than that, very good recipe. I used yellow potatoes so maybe that needs more time that red?
Carlos Briggs
Good flavor and very easy! Gave 3 stars as I had to cook potatoes and eggs an additional 5 min. Next time I will HP 6 min with a 10 min NR. Not sure if it is where I live but both were completely undercooked. Just some minor adjustments.

This is a very nice potato salad. I made it pretty much as written. I really like that the dressing is not sweet, as so many others are. I’ll definitely be making this again.
