Instant Pot Chicken Rosa Maria

This dish features tender chicken breasts cooked in a creamy, lemon-infused sauce that’s perfect for serving over pasta or with a side of roasted vegetables. Not only is it easy to make, but it also comes together quickly in your Instant Pot, making it ideal for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Juice of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
Set your Instant Pot to ‘Sauté’ mode and add the olive oil. Once hot, place the chicken breasts in the pot and sear them for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.
Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the pot and sauté for about 2 minutes until they start to soften. Then, add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any brown bits.
Return the chicken to the pot and close the lid, ensuring the valve is set to sealing. Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.
Once the cooking time is complete, allow for a natural release for 5 minutes, then quickly release the remaining pressure.
Remove the chicken from the pot and place it on a plate. Add the heavy cream, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and Italian seasoning to the pot, stirring until well combined.
Return the chicken to the pot and spoon some of the sauce over the top.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Serve your Instant Pot Chicken Rosa Maria over a bed of pasta or with your favorite side dishes. Enjoy the rich flavors and the warm, creamy sauce—it’s comfort food at its best!
