Crockpot or Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken

Step 1

Slow Cooker Instructions:

Step 2

Heat your coconut oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet.

Step 3

Add in the chicken to the pan and season with sea salt and pepper.

Step 4

Sear until nicely golden brown on both sides. Roughly break the chicken into large chunks and add it into the crockpot.

Step 5

In a small bowl whisk the broth and flour together really well, and pour it into the skillet where you cooked your chicken.

Step 6

Place the skillet back over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer to deglaze, stirring constantly.

Step 7

Once this sauce thickens, transfer it to your crockpot, using a good spatula to make sure you get all of it.

Step 8

In a mixing bowl, stir together all remaining ingredients except for the spinach.

Step 9

Pour this mixture over the chicken and stir well to combine everything.

Step 10

Cover and cook on LOW for 3-4 hours or on HIGH for 1.5-2 hours.

Step 11

Once the chicken is done, add in your fresh spinach and stir until wilted.

Step 12

Serve immediately with an extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese if desired.

Step 13

Instant Pot Instructions:

Step 14

Set Instant Pot to sauté. Once hot, add your oil.

Step 15

Add the chicken to your instant pot and season with sea salt and pepper.

Step 16

Sear until nicely golden brown on both sides. Roughly break the chicken into chunks and remove it from the instant pot. Set chicken aside on a plate.

Step 17

In a small bowl whisk the broth and flour together really well, and pour it into the instant pot where you just cooked your chicken.

Step 18

With your instant pot on sauté, bring to a gentle simmer to deglaze, stirring constantly. Add chicken back into this mixture.

Step 19

In a mixing bowl, stir together all remaining ingredients except for the spinach.

Step 20

Pour this mixture over the chicken and stir well to combine everything.

Step 21

Cover and seal the lid. Make sure the valve points to Sealed. Change setting to Manual and adjust time to 6 minutes on High Pressure.

Step 22

When finished cooking, let naturally release for 10 minutes. Release the rest of the pressure using "quick release" and, after the pin drops, carefully remove the lid.

Step 23

Add fresh spinach to your hot creamy chicken, then stir to combine just until your spinach is wilted.

Step 24

Serve immediately with an extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese if desired.

Step 25

Enjoy!
