This Instant Pot Chicken Stew Recipe is perfect for an easy Sunday dinner or a weeknight meal. One of my favorite things about cooking in the Instant Pot is the simplicity of “dump and start” recipes. This stew is hearty and warm, and comes together about 30 minutes. Loaded with chicken, potatoes, carrots, and corn – you’re sure to love this simple and filling stew.
