Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 3 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
- 3 celery stalks, chopped
- 2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1 14.5–ounce can diced tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Press the sauté function on the Instant Pot and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the chicken and cook until browned, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
- Add the onion and garlic, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the carrots, celery, chicken broth, diced tomatoes, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf. Cancel the sauté function and stir everything together.
- Close the Instant Pot lid, and turn the valve to the sealing position. Set the Instant Pot to high pressure for 10 minutes cooking time.
- When the cooking cycle is complete, allow the pressure to naturally release for 5 minutes, then carefully turn the valve to the venting position to release the remaining pressure.
- Open the Instant Pot lid and use tongs to remove the bay leaf to discard. Add the frozen peas and stir until the peas are heated through (just a couple of minutes).
- Season the stew with salt and black pepper, to taste.
- Serve the Instant Pot chicken stew hot.
Notes
- You can also add other vegetables or ingredients to the stew, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, mushrooms, or corn, based on your preferences.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat before serving.
