Ingredients

Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken:

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 Tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 large yellow onion diced
  • 5 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 (15-oz) can full-fat coconut milk
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 1 Tbsp dried parsley***
  • ½ tsp sea salt to taste
  • ⅔ cup sun-dried tomatoes drained
  • 2 Tbsp gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 2 handfuls baby spinach optional

Instructions

  • Sprinkle both sides of the chicken breasts with sea salt and set aside.
  • Press the Sauté button on your pressure cooker and add the avocado oil and onions. Sauté the onions, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown, about 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic and sauté another 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add the coconut milk, chicken broth, dried parsley, sea salt, and sun-dried tomatoes and whisk well until the clumps of flour are out. Bring the sauce to a full boil and cook for a few minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.
  • Add the chicken to the pressure cooker and give everything a stir so that the chicken breasts are coated with sauce.
  • Pressure cook on high for 8 minutes, then naturally release for 10 (If you’re new to pressure cooking: Press “Manual” or “Pressure Cook” button and adjust the time for 8 minutes. Make sure the pressure release valve is closed (sealed). The pressure cooker will take a few minutes to heat up, then it will run its 8-minute pressure cook course. After the 8 minutes is up, allow the pressure cooker to sit for another 10 minutes to begin the natural pressure release process).
  • Open the pressure release valve to release the remaining pressure. Use tongs to remove the chicken and place it on a plate before stirring in the gluten-free flour. Place chicken back in the pot and stir in the spinach. Cover the pot with the lid for 3 to 5 minutes to allow the spinach to cook. There's no need to cook the meal longer - the existing heat is enough to cause the spinach to wilt.
  • Serve the creamy Tuscan chicken with your choice of side dishes, and enjoy!
