Instant Pot Chicken Parmesan

This quick and easy Chicken Parmesan is the answer to your weeknight dreams!! And since it's made in the Instant Pot, it's ready in minutes!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 1-1/2 cups prepared marinara sauce
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 thin chicken cutlets (12 ounces total)
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt, or more to taste
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, grated
  • Chopped basil, for garnish (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Using the sauté function (on low, if possible), heat the oil in the pressure cooker pot. Stir in the garlic and cook until just turning golden, about 2 minutes. Stir in the marinara sauce, 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  2. Increase the sauté heat to medium.
  3. Season the chicken with the salt, oregano, and pepper to taste. Nestle the cutlets into the sauce, overlapping as little as possible, then spoon the sauce over to cover the chicken.
  4. Lock the lid into place and cook on low pressure for 3 minutes. Manually release the pressure.
  5. Sprinkle the mozzarella and the remaining 1 tablespoon Parmesan evenly over the chicken. Cover the pot with the lid (but don’t lock it on) and let it sit for 4 to 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
  6. Serve as is or, for deeper flavors and a little bit of crispiness, broil the cheese until golden and bubbling: Heat the broiler with a rack 4 inches from the heat source. Scoop the chicken and sauce into a greased small rimmed baking sheet, trying to keep the cheese on top. Broil until the cheese has browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with basil, if desired.

Buffalo Chicken Jalapeno Popper Casserole - Keto Recipes

Jalapenos and buffalo chicken are a marriage of flavors that just had to be done. It’s a flavor explosion that is oozing with rich and delicious cheese, and packed full of spiciness in every bite. Of course – you can’t forget about bacon. Everything tastes better with bacon. I based this on a quick skillet meal that my girlfriend made me the other night. It was pretty much this, but in a pan – and I knew right then and there I had to make a casserole out of it. Both of us absolutely love buffalo sauce and try to put it on just about everything we can. Spice in general is welcome in this house – and this have a serious kick of delicious and spicy flavors. If you’re not a fan of spice, make sure you de-seed the jalapenos! P.S.  Don’t forget to serve your meal up with a delicious piece of crispy chicken skin! A warning in advance:  try not to add too much salt and pepper to the filling mixture until you’ve tasted it with the hot sauce. The hot sauce itself is relatively salty

Trump Is Totally Lost on the Shutdown

Just how lost is the White House in trying to avoid a humiliating defeat for President Donald Trump in the shutdown showdown? According to Chad Pergram of Fox News, it’s trying to divert disaster-relief funding — intended to cover wildfires in California and hurricanes in Florida, Puerto Rico and Texas — to build Trump’s border wall. It’s hard to convey how self-defeating this would be. The Republican leader in the House, who Trump desperately needs to keep on board, is from California. Diverting money from his constituents to fund the president’s obsession is perhaps the best way to drive him away. Then there’s the Electoral College. No, Puerto Rico doesn’t get to vote, and California is long gone for Republicans. But Florida was one of the closest states for Trump in 2016; losing its 29 electoral votes would mean he’d have virtually no margin of error in the next election. And while he won Texas by a wider margin, Representative Beto O’Rourke’s impressive run for Senate last

Zinedine Zidane confirmed as new Real Madrid manager

Zinedine Zidane is back as Real Madrid manager, signing a contract until June 30, 2022. Shock reports from Spain emerged on Monday afternoon that Zidane had agreed to take over from Santiago Solari at the Bernabeu. Los Blancos have suffered a nightmare March with defeats to Barcelona in the Copa del Rey semi final and La Liga, leaving them 12 points off the top. And when they lost 4-1 to Ajax in their Champions League last-16 second leg, there was no way back for Solari. Sunday’s 4-1 win against Valladolid did nothing to save his job. But now, Zidane is back at the helm just 10 months after leaving the club. The Frenchman led Real to three consecutive Champions League titles before announcing his decision to leave. But when he left, Zidane hinted that he could return one day. “Of course, I could return, I’ll always be near to this club as it’s close to my heart,” he said back in May. He probably didn’t expect it to be quite so soon, though. A statement
