Instructions

  1. Add 1 Tbsp olive oil to the instant pot and select "SAUTE." Add the boneless chicken thighs to the pot and cook for about 2 minutes per side.
  2. To deglaze the pot, add the can of crushed tomatoes to the instant pot and using a wooden spoon scrape the bits of chicken from the bottom of the pan.
  3. Add onion, green pepper, mushrooms, salt, pepper, garlic, balsamic vinegar, and Italian seasoning to the instant pot.
  4. Secure the lid and turn the pressure valve to SEALING.
  5. Select "HIGH PRESSURE" and a cook time of 12 minutes.
  6. Allow to naturally release pressure for ten minutes, then do a quick release.
  7. Open the lid of the Instant Pot and stir. 
  8. Add chopped parsley and basil and serve over noodles. ENJOY.

Notes

  • This recipe was made using a 6qt Instant Pot. Prep time does not include time it takes to come to pressure (about 12 minutes).
  • I prefer using boneless skinless chicken thighs, but you can use chicken breasts without changing the cook time. I find the thighs have more flavor and moisture.
  • If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can use the saute feature and make a slurry of cornstarch and water to thicken when the cook time ends. 
  • Slow Cooker: Combine all the ingredients in the bottom of a large slow cooker. Stir and cover. Cook on low heat for 6 hours. Serve with chopped parsley and basil over egg noodles.
