Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp fresh thyme or rosemary
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions

  1. Sauté the Chicken: Set your Instant Pot to sauté mode. Add olive oil and let it heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then place them in the pot. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  2. Add Garlic: Once the chicken is browned, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Introduce the Potatoes: Add the baby potatoes and pour in the chicken broth. Stir gently to combine.
  4. Seasoning Time: Sprinkle fresh thyme or rosemary and drizzle lemon juice over the mixture. Stir well to ensure every bite is flavor-packed.

  6. Release & Serve: After cooking, perform a quick release of pressure. Carefully open the lid and serve warm, drizzling with any remaining sauce.
