This is a nice rich and creamy chicken dinner and perfect for a quick dinner on a chilly and cold winter evening. Make this in your Instant Pot with that awesome lemon garlic butter to delight your senses with each bite. You can serve potato with it as a side or if you prefer add some bread to mop up every last drop of sauce at the end.

This is such an awesome meal made in the Instant Pot and 50 Minute Instant Pot Tortellini Soup With Sausage, Instant Pot Beef, and Barley Soup, as well as Instant Pot Meatloaf and Mashed Potatoes, are some of our favorites too!
