Keto Instant Pot Chicken Stew

During these cold weather months, stews are the ultimate go-to comfort food meal. Below is a step by step on how I make my yummy Keto Instant Pot Chicken Stew.

If you’ve been rocking with me for a while now, then you know I have had on again, off again relationship with Keto for the last 5 years. This month we are in-love again so most of the recipes I will be sharing will be Keto-friendly. I said “most” because I am not a strickly Keto, I believe in carb cycling.

To be honest, the reason I love this keto instant pot chicken stew recipe so much is that not only is it a breeze to make for a cool weeknight meal but also because it’s a dish that can feed the Keto and non-Keto eaters of the family. My kids live for a substantial amount of carbohydrates and still love this meal. If you have picky eaters like mine, then you may want to give this a shot.

Keto Instant Pot Chicken Stew:

Place the oil in the IP and select the saute setting.

Add the chopped onion and saute for 2 minutes, then add the garlic for 1 minute.

Turn off the saute setting and then add in the thighs, peppers and seasoning.

Now I like to stir the tomato paste and greek yogurt into the broth before adding them all to the IP.

Secure the lid and select the “soup/stew” setting for 10 minutes.

Natural release, then shred the chicken with two forks.

Voila! You have delicious keto friendly instant pot chicken stew. Serve in bowls with a dollop of sour cream, or alongside some mashed cauliflower.

Nothing like some soul warming stew on a cold night. Now to grab fluffy blanket and curl up by the fireplace and relax. I hope you enjoy this Keto Chicken Stew as much as we did.
