Hey everyone, Jenn here! A while back, Barbara created an amazing Rosemary Cashew Chicken recipe<\/a> that won first prize in a local recipe contest\u2014an amazing cashew chicken filling served inside classic vol-au-vent pastries. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While I really love the original recipe, I seldom take the time to make the puff pastries. However, flavors this<\/em> tasty need to be eaten often, so we\u2019ve simplified the original recipe and converted it to the pressure cooker<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Instant Pot Cashew Chicken is a weeknight meal, served over fluffy white rice with steamed broccoli and creamy gouda cheese sauce. This quick and easy pressure cooker recipe is sure to be a family favorite!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How to Make Rosemary Cashew Chicken in the Instant Pot \/ Pressure Cooker<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This Rosemary Cashew Chicken recipe will work in any brand of electric pressure cooker<\/strong>, including the Instant Pot<\/a>, Ninja Foodi<\/a>, or Power Pressure Cooker XL<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Instant Pot recipe might look tricky, but it actually comes together really easily. Just start by sauteing diced chicken and onions in your cooking pot.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then add chicken stock as the cooking liquid. Add a trivet so you can cook the chicken below and the rice pot-in-pot on top. (More on that next!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the chicken and rice cook in your Instant Pot, you can make the creamy gouda cheese sauce in a sauce pan.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the pressure valve drops and you open the lid, remove the rice, then make a quick slurry of cornstarch and water to thicken the liquid surrounding the chicken.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Serve Instant Pot Rosemary Chicken<\/strong> over white rice topped with creamy gouda sauce and sprinkled with cashews for crunch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
