📋 Ingredients

• Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts: Form the protein base of the dish, providing a lean, tender, and flavorful bite.
• Self Rising Flour: Is used to dust the chicken, helping to give it a golden, crispy exterior when cooked.
• Panko Bread Crumbs: Add an extra layer of crunch to the chicken, enhancing the texture and appeal of the dish.
• Garlic Salt, Seasoned Salt, Seasoned Pepper: Work together to enhance the natural flavors of the chicken and potatoes, adding depth and complexity to the dish.
• Gold Potatoes - Washed and Cut In Half: Are buttery and slightly sweet, providing a hearty and comforting element to the dish.
• Onion - Cut In Large Chunks: Caramelize under pressure, adding a layer of sweetness that complements the savory chicken and potatoes.
• Marsala Wine: Adds a rich, slightly sweet, and nutty flavor that is the signature of any Chicken Marsala dish.
• Chicken Broth/Chicken Stock: Adds a savory depth to the dish, enhancing the flavors of the chicken and the potatoes while also creating a delicious sauce.
• Olive Oil: Is used for sautéing, adding a subtle fruitiness, and ensuring the chicken and onions don't stick to the pot.
• Butter: Adds richness and a creamy, indulgent note to the dish, complementing the flavors of the wine and chicken beautifully.

🔀 Substitutions & Variations

• Sliced Mushrooms: Can indeed be used as an optional ingredient in your Instant Pot Chicken Marsala and Potatoes recipe, adding them to the mushroom mixture (if you also have the mushroom mixture) enhances the flavor depth. Add them after sautéing the onions, allowing them to absorb the Marsala wine and chicken broth for a rich, earthy taste.
• Frozen Chicken: Using frozen chicken extends the convenience, allowing you to cook frozen chicken directly in the Instant Pot without thawing, ensuring a quick and efficient cooking process.

🔪How to Cook Instant Pot Chicken Marsala and Potatoes?

Step One: First, place the flour and Panko bread crumbs on a large plate, add garlic salt, seasoned salt, and seasoned pepper to the flour/bread crumb mixture, and mix well.

Step Two: Place the chicken breasts on the plate, spoon the flour mixture on the breasts, and press to coat.

Step Three: Turn the Instant Pot on to the SAUTE setting. Place enough Olive Oil in the bottom to coat it in a thin layer. Add the butter, and melt it. When the butter melts, stir well with the Olive Oil, and with Kitchen tongs, add the breasts, carefully place them in the bottom of the Instant Pot. Brown the chicken on both sides. Remove to a plate.

Step Four: Add a little more Olive Oil and butter to the Pot, and add the onion, Marsala wine, and chicken broth to the Pot. Boil the wine sauce, and then turn off the SAUTE setting after the sauce thickens.

Step Five: Return the chicken to the Instant Pot, add the Potatoes, and sprinkle with garlic salt, and pepper. Place the lid on the Instant Pot until it beeps and locks. Make sure the Pressure Valve is set to SEALING, and press the 'MEAT/STEW' button, and set the time for 30 minutes.

Step Six: When the Instant Pot is done cooking, do a quick release, and release the pressure. Make sure the Float Valve is down, and carefully remove the lid.

Step Seven: Place the Chicken, potatoes, and onion on a large plate, and pour the creamy sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Halve the chicken breasts and plate them with potatoes, onion, and Marsala sauce to serve chicken marsala dish. Enjoy!
