Greeting, fellow pressure cookers! I stumbled across this recipe https://www.ambitiouskitchen.com/butternut-squash-green-chile-chicken-soup/ and want to give it a try in my IP. Does anyone have recommendations on what setting I should use and how much time? My first thought is to try manual, but maybe stew or the soup setting would be better. Thank you for any help you can provide!

    Something like that I'd set for manual, high-pressure, at 10-minutes (frozen chicken) or 8-minutes (thawed), and you'd be OK to do a rapid release, if you're using kinda 'normal' chicken breasts at kinda 'normal' altitude... (I add about 2-minutes to these times for each 5000-ft of elevation)

    Thicker or heavier chicken might need 2 more minutes, but it'd be fine just to use the times above with a natural release of about 10-minutes or so.

    Awesome! So for chicken thighs, I would still aim for about 8 minutes on manual?
