Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/4 cup water or chicken broth
  • 4 chicken breast
  • 1 (14.5-ounce can) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil or 5 fresh basil leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 Tablespoons capers
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese ( (or 4 burrata cheese balls, split open))
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instruction

  • Pour in 1/4 cup water or chicken broth into the inner pot of the Instant Pot.
  • Add the chicken breasts (fresh or frozen) in next.
  • Add the diced tomatoes, Italian seasoning, basil, salt, garlic and red pepper flakes into the instant pot. Do NOT stir.
  • Set the instant pot on high for 6 minutes for fresh chicken and 8 minutes for frozen. (NOTE: It will take about 10 minutes for the pressure to build up before the timer starts.)
  • NATURAL RELEASE. Allow the Instant Pot to release the pressure naturally, which means to DO NOTHING while the Instant Pot releases the pressure. Then carefully remove the lid.
  • To thicken the sauce, remove the chicken, press the SAUTE button, and allow it to cook down for an additional 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Spoon the thickened sauce over the chicken. Top with capers, mozzarella, parmesan, and/or burrata cheese balls (split open.) Serve over pasta.
