Chicken & Gravy

Course: Main Course
Keyword: Comfort Food

Ingredients

  • 2.5-3 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, each cut in half
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 packets chicken gravy mix (0.87-oz each)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 cups homemade cream of chicken soup

Instructions

  • Place chicken breast pieces into the insert pot of the Instant Pot. Pour chicken broth into
  • the pot.
  • Sprinkle gravy packets, black pepper, and garlic powder over the chicken breasts, but do
  • not mix.
  • Close the lid and set the vent to the sealed position. Select a cook time of 6 minutes at
  • high pressure.
  • After the cook time is complete, allow a natural release of pressure. Once the pressure
  • has released and the valve has dropped, carefully remove the lid.
  • Remove chicken to a cutting board and shred, slice, or chop (I always shred it but leave
  • some larger chunks).
  • Add homemade cream of chicken soup to the gravy in the Instant Pot, whisking until it's
  • fully incorporated and smooth. Return chicken to the gravy and stir to combine.
  • Spoon chicken and gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, biscuits, or noodles to serve.

● I use low-sodium chicken broth in this recipe because the gravy packets have a good bit
of salt in them.
● I highly recommend using homemade cream of chicken soup, because it adds such
wonderful flavor, but you can certainly use the canned variety if preferred. Simply use 1
can of condensed cream of chicken soup plus one can of water.
● You can change up the flavor a little by using one packet of chicken gravy mix and one
packet of ranch dressing mix.
