Chicken Stew
Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken Stew is the latest in our series for 2019 dedicated to Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken. A few months back we showed you how to make a delicious Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken followed up by Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken Pasta. Now it’s the turn of an Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken Stew. A hearty dish that we made with our family (and your family in mind). Don’t you just hate it when you’re late in from work, or time has got away from you and you just want to eat NOW. As a working mum of 3 I know what that is like. I will be about to go and make dinner, then I will realise that Jorge chooses the worst time ever for a nappy change. Or Sofia has made a mess and I need to clean it up before I start dinner. Or a delivery might arrive that I need to sort through. Then before I know it, I am starting dinner an hour later than planned and need it to be ready ASAP and this is when a dump meal like my Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken Stew saves my day. You see the prep is so FAST that is BECAUSE:
You can use frozen vegetablesYou can use diced or whole chicken breastsYou can throw in your potatoes with the skin still on
In fact, when I made this Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken Stew, the only prep I did was chopping my baby potatoes in half and dicing a single red onion. That was it! Then I could get back into family life and forget about it. Well until it beeped and told me it was cooked!
Instant Pot
Tuscan Chicken Stew (Beanless)
I notice that people that live on the Mediterranean cook Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken Stew without beans and those on the other side of the Atlantic cook it with beans. There is no wrong or right way to do it and you can cook it with or without beans. Our recipe today for Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken Stew is without beans. But so delicious and you still get a good vitamin kick thanks to the various vegetables and the chicken stock used in this recipe.
Instant Pot
Tuscan Chicken Stew + Kettle + Fire
What makes a delicious Tuscan Chicken Stew is the broth or the stock that you use. If you just use water, it is truly awful. Imagine how your grandma used to cook in the 1980’s. And how her food always tasted like boiled meat and veg. There was no depth of flavour and it always tasted bland. Well this can happen in the Instant Pot without chicken stock as when it comes to pressure it loses flavour and can taste like overcooked mush. That is why I use Kettle & Fire Bone Broth instead as it adds to the flavour and stops this problem. You can click here to browse their range.

Chicken Stew In The Instant Pot?
I start by sautéing the onion and garlic in the Instant Pot and adding the white wine to deglaze the Instant Pot. Already from this point it smells Mediterranean and you’re already excited by the amazing Tuscan Chicken Stew that you’re about to make. After this, the rest of the ingredients are thrown into the Instant Pot and you can relax, put your feet up and return when it beeps. Then a quick stir, grab some bread and you’re ready to eat. Though, I should add some small print that it gets so hot when its time to serve that you’re blowing it forever! So maybe dish it up, return to the sofa and all eat together 10 minutes later to save on burnt tongues!
