Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

2 tablespoons Simply Nature Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
All-purpose flour, for dredging
Salt, for seasoning
1-1.5 pounds Simply Nature Organic Chicken Breasts or chicken thighs
1 large onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
16 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 cup dry white wine
one 28 ounce can Simply Nature Organic Diced Tomatoes

Method

Dredge the chicken in all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt. Turn on the sauté function on the Instant Pot. Add olive oil, and sauté the chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side until lightly browned. Remove and set aside.
Add diced onion, sliced mushrooms, and minced garlic to the Instant Pot. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
Pour in the white wine and let it bubble and reduce for 1-2 minutes.
Add the browned chicken back to the Instant Pot along with the diced tomatoes. Secure the lid and cook on high pressure for 15 minutes. Allow for a natural pressure release for 10 minutes, then perform a quick release.
Remove the chicken from the pot and shred it using two forks.
Return the shredded chicken to the pot and stir to combine with the sauce.
Serve the chicken cacciatore over cooked angel hair pasta, garnished with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese.

Notes

– Use a good quality white wine for the best flavor, or substitute with chicken broth if preferred.
– Ensure your Instant Pot is properly sealed before cooking on high pressure.
– For an extra flavorful sauce, let the vegetables sauté until well-softened.
– Serve over pasta, rice, or crusty bread to soak up all the delicious sauce.
