Pressure Cooker Lemon Dill Chicken with Potatoes is a one-pot meal full of flavor!

My inspiration for this recipe was to make a one-pot meal. I know the slow cooker can do a great job with chicken and potatoes together, so I had to see how a pressure cooker would do. For this meal I make a sauce out of butter, broth, lemon juice, garlic, dill, salt, pepper, and also used cornstarch to give the sauce a little weight to it. I decided on Yukon Gold potatoes, they are beautiful in this recipe along with the lemon sauce.

I often use dark meat in my recipes, but I really wanted to try boneless skinless chicken breasts in the pressure cooker. They turned out great, very moist and tender.

      I just tried this recipe… followed it to a T, but kept kept giving me a burn notice.. so I had to transfer everything to the oven. Still turned out, but would’ve been nice without having to do that. Was delicious though!

        Was your chicken frozen, that’s the only thing I can think of that would cause a problem.

          No, it was defrosted about 90% of the way.
          I’ll give it another try again sometime. Thanks!

      Dont you have to add water?

        The pressure cooker needs 1 cup of liquid for it not to throw an error. This recipe has the broth which counts as the liquid.

          So 1 cup of water as well as the other liquids?

            Hi Kelly, no the liquid in this should be enough. (over 1 cup with the butter).

      Made this last night with thyme instead of dill, as that’s what I had on hand. The whole family loved it!

      Do you do natural release or quick release after the cooking time?

      Yummy sauce! I cut this in half (2 chicken breasts) and made this in an Instant Pot instead (15 min cook time) and it came out great. I also added 1 tbsp of dijon mustard for an extra kick, and flour to thicken instead of cornstarch.
      I used fresh dill, but could go for even MORE dill energy! Bring on the dill!

      Great recipe!

      Thank you for the recipe! This is in the pressure cooker right now. I searched for a recipe to use up some of the world’s smallest chicken thighs plus some excess potatoes and didn’t want a heavy, dairy or tomatoey sauce. Not having fresh dill I substituted some diy Greek seasoning and from the way it smelled I know it is going to be delicious with the fresh lemon juice. With this great introduction to your blog I’ve got to spend more time and see what other great recipes you have. Thanks again, I know it will be delicious.

      How do you think if I browned the chicken first?

        Probably the same amount of pressure cooking since the potatoes still need the full amount of time.
