Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon dried oregano
salt and pepper to taste
2 chicken breasts, sliced in half horizontally
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup small fresh mushrooms, stems removed
¼ cup diced onion
½ cup Marsala wine
½ cup water
⅓ cup sun-dried tomatoes
1 cube porcini-flavored bouillon
2 cups firmly packed spinach leaves
1 (16 ounce) package spaghetti
2 tablespoons water
½ tablespoon potato starch
¼ cup half-and-half

Steps:

  • Mix together flour, oregano, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Dust chicken slices with flour mixture and set aside.
  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add olive oil and allow to get hot. Add chicken and fry until nicely browned, about 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate. Add butter and allow to melt. Stir in mushroom caps and onions; cook for 2 minutes. Mix in wine, water, sun-dried tomatoes, and bouillon cube. Bring to a simmer and turn off Saute mode.
  • Place chicken pieces on top of the sauce in the pot. Layer spinach on top of the chicken. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 4 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
  • Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
  • Open lid and remove chicken to a plate. Make a slurry by mixing water with potato starch. Mix slurry into the Marsala sauce. Set mode to Saute, and bring sauce to a simmer. Whisk until sauce is thickened then turn Saute mode off. Stir in half-and-half until sauce is golden and creamy.
  • Distribute spaghetti amongst 4 plates, ladle sauce on top of the noodles and place chicken onto pasta.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I would use less salt next time.

The sauce was a bit too thick for my taste. I would thin it out with some chicken broth next time.

I'm not a fan of mushrooms, so I omitted them from the recipe. The dish was still very flavorful.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more garlic and herbs next time.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try it again and cook the chicken for less time.
