Brown Chicken Thighs

Heat up Instant Pot using Sauté high function. Wait until it says HOT. This prevents chicken from sticking to the pot.

Pat dry chicken and season one side gently with salt + black pepper. Add in 2 tbsp (28g) unsalted butter or olive oil.

Quickly add in the chicken to prevent butter from burning. While one side is browning, season the other side with more salt + black pepper.

Brown first side for 3.5 minutes, then the other side for 2 minutes. Set the chicken aside.*Pro Tip: For better browning results, brown chicken in 2 batches using the same cooking times.

Saute Garlic & Mushrooms:

Add minced garlic, then saute for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add sliced mushroom, season with salt + black pepper, then saute for a minute. Add 2 tsp (2.4g) Italian seasonings, then saute for another minute.

Deglaze Instant Pot: Mix 1 tbsp (15ml) soy sauce + ¾ cup (188ml) unsalted chicken stock together, then pour in Instant Pot and deglaze (scrub all the flavorful brown bits off the bottom). Give it a quick mix.

Pressure Cook Chicken:

Add in browned chicken + meat juice. Pressure cook chicken at:

• Chicken Thighs: High Pressure 5 minutes + Natural Release 10 minutes

• Chicken Breasts: High Pressure 4 minutes + Natural Release 10 minutes

After 10 minutes, release remaining pressure.

Create Tuscan Chicken Sauce:

Set aside chicken, bring the liquid mixture back to a boil (Saute button).

Add in 1 cup (40g) spinach and 60 - 80g sun-dried tomatoes, then cook for 30 seconds. Give them a quick stir.

Mix in 1/2 cup (125ml) heavy cream and 1/4 - 1/2 cup (16 - 32g) freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

Thicken Tuscan Chicken Sauce & Seasoning:
