Toasted Sesame Miso Hummus
Chicken Cutlets in Tuscan Cream Sauce
| By : |
When you’re eating healthy, you don’t have to sacrifice silky sauces. Here,
just a small amount of cheese gives this sauce its creaminess—no actual
cream is used. Mushrooms, spinach, and sun-dried tomatoes add Tuscan
flavor (and lots of vegetable servings, too). Serve the chicken over spiralized
vegetable noodles, rice, whole-grain pasta, farro, or polenta.

Instructions
- Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Sprinkle them all over with
1/2 tsp of the salt and the pepper. - Select the Sauté setting on the Instant Pot and heat the oil for 2 minutes. Using tongs, add the chicken in a single layer and sear for about 2 minutes, until lightly browned. Flip the chicken and sear for 2 more minutes, until lightly browned on the second side, then transfer to a plate. Add the garlic, onion, mushrooms, and the remaining
1/4 tsp salt and sauté for about 4 minutes, until the onion begins to soften and the mushrooms begin to wilt and give up their liquid. Add the Italian seasoning, wine, and tomatoes and stir to combine, using a wooden spoon to nudge any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Let the wine come to a simmer, then add the chicken breasts in a single layer on top. - Secure the lid and set the Pressure Release to Sealing. Press the Cancel button to reset the cooking program, then select the Pressure Cook or Manual setting and set the cooking time for 5 minutes at high pressure. (The pot will take about 5 minutes to come up to pressure before the cooking program begins.)
- Let the pressure release
- Press the CancelSauté setting. Add the spinach and basil and stir until wilted, about 1 minute. Add the Laughing Cow (cream cheese) and Pecorino Romano cheeses and stir for 1 minute, until melted. In a small bowl, stir together the cornstarch and water, add to the pot, and stir for about 1 more minute, until the sauce is slightly thickened. Press the Cancel button to turn off the pot. Wearing heat-resistant mitts, lift out the inner pot.
- Spoon the sauce and vegetables over the chicken and serve right away.

Hey. Instructions say use tomatoes…didnt see any on the shipping list.
Perfect. Spot on dinner. Easy.
I think it specifies sun dried tomatoes.
Great recipe. I added olives in the same step as the basil.
So good!
What a fabby recipe, made it for our friends and it was a hit. No need for corn starch just added a few carrots chopped in small pieces that thickened the sauce, added colour and great flavour. Will do this again soon.
The recipe was good. I’m not a ‘salt person’ but I feel this needed much more than what was called for in recipe.
This was my first recipe and the sauce was amazing. Lost my manual but easy to figure out. Saved this recipe for another time.
Delicious but next time will use half the onion and twice the wine, cream cheese and roux
