Instant pot chicken and dumplings will quickly become a family favorite. The prep is a breeze, and the meal cooks in fewer than 15 minutes. Even after a busy day, there's time to make this comforting all-in-one dinner. Simple drop dumplings thicken the stew slightly as it cooks, and a small amount of heavy cream is added just before serving for richness. The cooking time is only about 14 minutes, but be sure to plan on an extra 25 minutes for pressure buildup and release.
