Notes
You can use any cream to make your sauce thicker. I love the combination of coconut milk, soft cheese and parmesan to make mine just right.
If you are on a diet you can make our pressure cooker Tuscan Chicken lower in calories by swapping coconut milk for Fromage Frais or another fat free yoghurt.
If using frozen chicken breast in your Tuscan chicken cook the chicken for 8 minutes NOT 6 minutes. Also, if you’re using diced chicken, cook for 4 minutes instead of 6.
