Tender, succulent turkey breast with gravy can be on the dinner table in less than an hour, with this Instant Pot Turkey Breast with Gravy recipe. This instant pot recipe is so healthy, quick, and delicious, we enjoy it anytime of year. 

Instant Pot Turkey Breast with Gravy

For the Turkey Breast:

olive oil

tsp kosher salt

tsp black pepper

garlic powder

onion powder

tsp ground paprika

tsp rosemary

thyme

chicken broth

garlic

onion,

celery,

carrots,

turkey breast, about 7lbs (bone-in)

For the Gravy: 2 TB cornstarch 2 TB water

In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic and onion powders, paprika, and chopped herbs. Set aside. Place rack trivet into Instant Pot (rack comes with the IP.) Add broth, garlic cloves, onion, celery, and carrots into the pot. Set aside.

Use paper towels to thoroughly dry excess moisture off of the turkey breast inside and out. Be sure to remove and discard gravy packet from turkey if there is one. Use clean hands to evenly press half of the olive oil mixture evenly underneath the skin throughout. Evenly press remaining mixture over the skin and all around. Place turkey into Instant Pot. Cook for 30 minutes on high pressure, according to manufacturer instructions.

Once the 30 minutes is up, be sure to press cancel on pressure cooker and allow your IP to release naturally. It should take about 15-20 minutes. Once natural release is done, transfer turkey to a cutting board and tent with foil to keep warm.* Use slotted spoon to remove most of the veggies from the liquid in your Instant Pot and discard.

Make Gravy: Combine cornstarch with water and stir until fully dissolved. Turn Instant Pot on to Sauté mode, with lid off, bringing liquid to a boil. Once it starts boiling, immediately add the dissolved cornstarch and stir until liquid becomes thicker, with gravy consistency. This should happen fairly quickly. Turn Instant Pot off and serve gravy with turkey.

I've never been happy with my turkey recipes. It's always tough and tasteless. But this looks like something even I can do. I think I'll do a test run before Thanksgiving! Thanks so much.

Absolutely the best, easiest turkey &amp; gravy I’ve ever made. Moist &amp; delicious. Maybe I’ll make it for more than the holidays now!

This Instant Pot Turkey and Gravy recipe is super easy to make and you won’t believe how moist and juicy it is! Because this turkey recipe is no fuss, cooks fast and tastes delicious, it’s one of the best Thanksgiving recipes in my opinion.

Normally I have to admit, I’m not big on turkey. Thanksgiving is my least favorite foodie holiday. I don’t like dry turkey (which people always seem to make) and also I get bored easily with gravy and cranberries. They just don’t do it for me but I absolutely love this Instant Pot Turkey. For sides, I like to jazz things up a bit (See my Instant Pot Cranberry Sauce with Rosemary and Port - video

Easy Instant Pot Turkey and Gravy -All Made in One Pot!

Make Easy Pressure Cooker Turkey One Pot Meal in an hour! Tender turkey, buttery mashed potatoes &amp; rich homemade turkey gravy made in one pot! Great recipe for Thanksgiving &amp; Christmas holidays.

Pressure Cooker Turkey One Pot Meal

(~2.5lbs/1150 grams) turkey quarters

(130 grams) medium onion (, diced)

(10 grams) garlic cloves (, minced)

(120 grams) large carrot (, chopped)

(70 grams) celery (, chopped)

(250 milliliters) unsalted homemade chicken/turkey stock

sherry wine

rosemary

sage

salt black pepper

water

oz (30 grams) Parmesan cheese

½ cup (100 milliliters) milk

(14 grams-28 grams) unsalted butter

Prepare Turkey Quarters: Pat dry the turkey quarters with paper towels. Season with generous amount of kosher salt and ground black pepper.

Prepare Pressure Cooker: Heat up your pressure cooker (Instant Pot: press Sauté button and click Adjust button to Sauté More function). Make sure your pot is as hot as it can be (Instant Pot: wait until indicator says HOT).

Brown Turkey Quarters: You can brown them in the Instant Pot, but we found it easier to brown them on a skillet. Add 1 tablespoon (15ml) of olive oil. Place the turkey quarters on a preheated skillet over medium-high heat or in the Instant Pot. Brown each side for roughly 4 – 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.

Deglaze Skillet (if you're using a separate skillet): Deglaze the skillet by pouring ½ cup (125ml) unsalted chicken stock and scrub the flavorful brown bits off the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Reserve the flavorful liquid.

Sauté Onion and Garlic: Add 1 tablespoon (15ml) of olive oil. Then, add diced onion in the pressure cooker. Sauté for roughly a minute until soften. Add minced garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds until fragrant. Season with kosher salt and ground black pepper.

Sauté Celery and Carrot: Add in chopped celery and carrot. Sauté until the vegetables are slightly browned (roughly 5 – 7 minutes). Optional layer seasoning: taste and season with more kosher salt and ground black pepper. Add 2 bay leaves, a pinch of rosemary, sage and thyme (rub the herbs with your fingers to “activate” them), then sauté for another minute until fragrant.

Deglaze: Add a dash of sherry wine in the pressure cooker and deglaze by scrubbing the flavorful brown bits off the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon.

Add Turkey Quarters &amp; Potatoes: Add browned turkey quarters, reserved flavorful liquid from skillet (if any) and the remaining unsalted chicken stock in the pressure cooker. Place a steamer basket into the pot and add in the halved Yukon gold potatoes. Close lid and pressure cook at High Pressure for 18 – 20 minutes + 10 minutes Natural Release.

After 10 minutes of natural release, turn the Venting Knob to Venting Position to release the remaining pressure. Open the lid carefully.

Make Mashed Potatoes: Remove the steamer basket and place all the potatoes into a large mixing bowl. Mash the potatoes with a fork or masher. Add 1 – 2 tbsp (14g – 28g) unsalted butter, 30g grated Parmesan cheese, and 100ml milk or cream. Continue mashing and mixing until desired consistency. Season with kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste. For creamier mashed potatoes, use more milk/cream.

Make Turkey Gravy: While mashing the potatoes, remove the turkey quarters and set aside. Heat the pressure cooker over medium heat (Instant Pot: Press Saute). Taste the sauce and season with salt and ground black pepper if necessary. Mix 3 tbsp of cornstarch with 2 tbsp of water and stir the mixture into the turkey gravy one third at a time until desired thickness.

Serve: Drizzle the turkey gravy over the turkey quarters and mashed potatoes and serve immediately.

Instant Pot Turkey Breast

(~2.7lbs/1224 grams) bone-in turkey breast (, 3” thick)

(197 grams) medium onion (, diced)

carrots (, chopped)

(92 grams) celery (, chopped)

(250 milliliters) unsalted chicken stock ((or unsalted turkey stock))

honey

soy sauce

freshly grated Parmesan cheese

ml milk

Wet Brine for Moist Turkey: Depending on the size of your turkey breast, mix 90g (3.17oz) salt with 1500ml (6 cups) of cold running water or 120g (4.23oz) salt with 2000ml (8 cups) cold running water in a large mixing bowl. Ensure the salt has fully dissolved. Fully submerge the turkey breast in the salted-water and place it in the fridge for at least 4 to 8 hours.&nbsp;*Pro Tip: Brining turkey breast for over 8 hours may result in ham-like meat texture.

Sauté Onion and Garlic: Add 1 tablespoon (15ml) olive oil. Then, add diced onion in the pressure cooker. Sauté for roughly 2 minutes until soften. Add minced garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds until fragrant. Season with kosher salt and ground black pepper.

Give it a quick stir and carefully place the turkey breast in the pressure cooker.

Optional - Add Pot-in-Pot Potatoes (If you're making mashed potatoes): Place a stainless steel bowl on top of the turkey breast and add in halved Yukon gold potatoes.

Pressure Cook Turkey Breast: Close lid and pressure cook at High Pressure for 28 – 34 minutes, then 15 minutes Natural Release (after 15 minutes of natural release, turn the Venting Knob to Venting Position to release the remaining pressure). Open the lid carefully.

Make Mashed Potatoes: Remove the stainless steel bowl and place all the potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Mash the potatoes with a fork or masher. Add 1 – 2 tbsp (14g – 28g) unsalted butter, 30g grated Parmesan cheese, and 100ml milk or cream. Continue mashing and mixing until desired consistency. Season with kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste. For creamier mashed potatoes, use more milk/cream.

Check Turkey Breast Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the thickest part of the turkey breast registers over 161°F (72°C). Set aside on a chopping board to rest for 15 minutes. The carryover heat will continue to cook the turkey to 165°F (74°C)

This Instant Pot Turkey Breast is ultra-juicy and tender with the best crispy, seasoned outside! The very best way to cook a turkey breast for Thanksgiving, special occasions, Sunday dinner, or any holiday menu!

Instant Pot Turkey Breast Recipe

turkey breast (see note)

Herbs de Provence (or Italian herb blend)

chili powder

salt

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon coarsely cracked black pepper black pepper)

juice of 1 orange

corn starch

salt and pepper (to taste)

Set pressure cooker to SEAR. Rub turkey breast all over with oil, and drizzle a little extra into the pot.

Stir together seasonings (Herbs de Provence, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, pepper, smoked paprika). Sprinkle all over turkey and gently rub in with your finger tips.

Transfer the turkey to the pot and sear for 4-5 minutes, rotating as needed to brown all sides.

Add 2 cups water to the pot (do not pour over the turkey, pour to the side so you don&#39;t wash off the seasonings!).

Place the lid on the pot and lock into position. Turn the vent valve to the SEALED position. Set pot to PRESSURE COOK on HIGH or MANUAL for 30 minutes (see note).

Once the cook time is up, do a quick release by turning the valve to RELEASE to let the steam out immediately (I like to take the pot outside so the steam is released outside instead of in my kitchen). While the pot is releasing pressure, preheat your oven to BROIL.

Once the float valve drops, remove the lid and use two forks to transfer the turkey to a small sheet pan or roasting dish. (Be sure to use two forks and not tongs as the tongs tend to scrape off that delicious seasoning we already seared onto the turkey!).

Add about a 1/2 cup of the liquid from the pot to the roasting dish and transfer the dish to the oven. Broil for 3-5 minutes until the outside of the turkey is crisp (but watch closely so it doesn&#39;t burn).

Using two forks again, transfer turkey to a cutting board, squeeze orange juice over the turkey, and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes before carving (this is key to keeping your turkey super juicy on the inside!).

To make the gravy (you can do this while the turkey is resting!) set your pressure cooker to SOUP. Whisk together corn starch and water for the corn starch slurry. Once the liquid in the pot comes to a rapid boil, stir in the corn starch slurry and watch as it thickens. Turn the pot off, season generously with salt and pepper, and serve over your sliced turkey. Enjoy!
