Chicken Piccata
Chicken piccata is an easy and delicious chicken dish. The chicken breasts are first dredged in all-purpose flour, browned on both sides and then cooked in a Piccata sauce. For this Instant Pot Creamy Chicken Piccata recipe, I added heavy whipping cream for a rich sauce that goes well with pasta.
What is Piccata Sauce?
Piccata sauce originated from Italy. It’s a sauce made mostly with lemon juice and butter. It’s citrusy and tastes best on protein such as chicken and fish, for example: salmon. You can make the sauce creamy by adding heavy whipping cream.
How to Dredge Chicken?
To make the chicken cutlets, first you butterfly the chicken breasts by slicing them horizontally into thinner pieces. Instead of seasoning the chicken with salt and pepper first, I mix both of them in the all-purpose flour. It’s easier! After that, transfer the chicken breasts to the flour mixture and dredge them thoroughly in the flour, until well coated.

This recipe is very good. I like the addition of the cream. If you usually use frozen chicken, try it with fresh chicken, it is so much better.

Excited to try your recipe! Is it okay to put the heavy whipping cream and set on high pressure? I was under the impression that dairy should be added after pressure because of curdling.
Rasa Malaysia
You can add the heavy cream and cook high pressure. It didn’t curdle, but feel free to add after pressure cooking.

I am looking forward to trying this recipe. Quick question about using a dairy free cream – i.e. if using coconut cream, when would it be best to add coconut cream to avoid curdling?
Rasa Malaysia
You can add after pressure cooking.

Can I replace the heavy cream with Half & Half?
Rasa Malaysia
I think so but I can’t guarantee the results since I didn’t use it.
