Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 onion
  • 2 carrot large
  • 2 celery small, stalks
  • ¾ teaspoon salt fine sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 2 lb chicken breast 900 g, Note 1
  • 1 lb potato waxy, 450 g
  • ¼ cup white wine Note 2, dry
  • 2 cups chicken stock Note 3
  • ½ teaspoon thyme
  • ½ teaspoon marjoram
  • ½ teaspoon rosemary
  • 2-3 bay leaf
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • ½ cup water
  • sea salt fine
  • ground black pepper fine
  • parsley optional, a few sprigs, fresh

Instructions

Prepare the ingredients:

  1. Cut the chicken into large chunks. Peel and cut the potatoes into chunks, finely chop the garlic cloves, and set them aside together.
  2. Dice the onion, chop the celery stalks, and cut the carrots into large chunks. Set them aside in another bowl.

Cook:

  1. Saute vegetables: Heat the instant pot using the saute function. Heat the oil shortly, then add onion, carrots, celery, ¾ teaspoon fine sea salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Saute for 4 minutes, occasionally stirring to prevent the onions from getting too brown.
  2. Add the chicken breast, potatoes, garlic, white wine, and chicken stock. Add herbs and bay leaves and stir.
  3. Cook: Seal the lid and set the pot to cook on high for 8 minutes (it will take the pot about 6-7 minutes to come to pressure).
  4. Allow for 10 minutes of natural release, then switch to venting. Remove the lid.
  5. Thicken stew: Whisk the cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl. Whisk the slurry into the chicken stew. Add the thawed peas and stir. Saute the chicken stew for 3-4 minutes or until thickened lightly.
  6. Sprinkle with parsley if desired and serve.

Notes

  • You can make the recipe with boneless skinless chicken thighs instead.
  • The wine is a nice touch, but it's optional; you can leave it out.
  • Vegetable broth can be used instead, but chicken stock or broth has more flavor.
