Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 pound fettuccine pasta, cooked according to package instructions
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

1. Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode and heat the olive oil.
2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the Instant Pot. Cook until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and set aside.
3. Add the minced garlic to the Instant Pot and sauté for 1 minute.
4. Pour in the chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the pot to deglaze it, removing any browned bits.
5. Add the chicken back to the Instant Pot, along with the Italian seasoning. Close the lid and set the Instant Pot to pressure cook for 8 minutes.
6. Once the cooking time is up, do a quick release of the pressure and carefully open the lid.
7. Remove the chicken from the Instant Pot and shred it using two forks.
8. Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode again and add the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
9. Add the shredded chicken back to the Instant Pot and stir to coat it with the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the chicken is heated through.
10. Serve the chicken Alfredo over cooked fettuccine pasta, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
