1
Pat the chicken breasts dry and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

Set your Instant Pot to Sauté mode. Once heated, add the olive oil and allow it to heat up.
3
Add the sliced cremini mushrooms to the pot and sauté until they release their juices and become golden brown.
4
Stir in the minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
5
Switch off the Sauté mode. Add 1/2 cup water, heavy cream, and cayenne pepper to the pot. Stir everything together, making sure the mushrooms and seasonings are evenly distributed.
6
Place the seasoned chicken on top of the mushroom mixture, ensuring the chicken is submerged in the liquid.

Secure the lid of the Instant Pot, setting to Sealing mode. Cook on high pressure for 8 minutes. Allow the pressure to naturally release for 5 minutes, then manually release the residual pressure.

Open the pot and remove the chicken, setting it aside to rest.

Switch your Instant Pot back to Sauté mode. Stir in the corn starch and water mixture, followed by the parmesan cheese, stirring continually until the sauce thickens into a savory gravy.

Turn off the Instant Pot and allow the sauce to cool slightly as it will continue to thicken.

Taste the gravy and adjust the salt and pepper if necessary.
