Description

A comforting dish featuring tender chicken, vibrant seasonal vegetables, and flavorful broth, perfect for family dinners or quick lunches.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs chicken breasts
  • 2 cups mixed seasonal vegetables (carrots, green beans, potatoes, etc.)
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode and heat the olive oil until shimmering.
  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot, sautéing until soft and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, thyme, and paprika. Place them into the pot and sear for another 2-3 minutes.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and add the mixed vegetables to the pot. Stir gently to combine.
  5. Close the lid securely and set the Instant Pot to manual high pressure for 10 minutes. Make sure the valve is set to sealing.
  6. When the cooking time is up, let the pressure release naturally for about 5 minutes, and then quick release any remaining pressure.
  7. Carefully open the lid, stir the contents gently, and serve hot.

Notes

Searing chicken enhances flavor; use fresh seasonal veggies for the best taste.
