Chicken cacciatore is braised Italian chicken in saucy pasta-friendly form, and the best thing about it for me right now is that it is bright, acidic and punchy (major caper action). Hello, YES.

But it’s also rich and savory (thanks, mushrooms), luscious and silky (olive oil and butter combo at work), and all-around just really satisfying over a pile of silky lemon-buttered capellini noodles.

  1. Dredge the chicken in flour and a pinch of salt. Turn on the sauté function on the Instant Pot. Add oil, and sauté the chicken for a few minutes on each side. Remove and set aside (it’s okay if they’re not cooked all the way).
  2. Add onion, mushrooms and garlic. Sauté until softened. Add wine and let it sizzle out.
  3. Add chicken and all other ingredients to Instant Pot. Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes. Release the pressure.
  4. Shred the chicken. Stir in the capers, butter, parsley and lemon.
  5. Serve with angel hair pasta (for a little extra zazz, toss it with lemon juice and butter). Top the whole thing with more parsley and Parmesan. You did it!
