How to Make Instant Pot Chicken and Gravy

Cut each chicken breast in half to ensure even cooking. Place the pieces in the Instant Pot.
Pour in the chicken broth until the chicken is mostly covered. Sprinkle the chicken gravy mix, black pepper, and garlic powder on top—do not stir.
Secure the lid, set the vent to sealing, and cook on high pressure for 6 minutes.
Allow the pressure to release naturally for about 10 minutes before safely opening the pot.
Remove the chicken and shred it or chop it into bite-sized pieces.
Stir in the homemade cream of chicken soup until fully combined with the gravy.
Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or buttery biscuits.
