Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 1 tbsp butter

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • ¾ cup chicken broth

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • ¼ tsp nutmeg (optional)

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 3 –4 medium zucchini, spiralized

Directions

  • Turn the Instant Pot to Sauté. Melt butter, add garlic, and cook 30 seconds.
  • Add chicken and sear for 2–3 minutes per side. Add chicken broth, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
  • Seal and cook on High Pressure for 8 minutes. Quick release the pressure.
  • Remove chicken and shred. I like my claw meat shredder but 2 forks work as well. Turn Instant Pot to Sauté.
  • Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan. Simmer until slightly thickened, 2–3 minutes.
  • Return chicken to sauce. Serve over fresh zoodles (no need to cook them—they’ll soften from the heat).
