I serve this over biscuits, and it is delicious!
Cook both the chicken and sauce in the instant pot to give only one pot to wash.


INGREDIENTS:
PREPARATION:
  1. Cook chicken:
    Cook chicken breasts in instant pot with 2 cups water: poultry setting (or 15 mins manual).
    Quick or natural release; cool and shred.
    Pour the liquid from the instant pot into a large measuring cup.
    Don't wash the instant pot yet—you'll use it again (below).
  2. Make white sauce:
    Melt butter in instant pot (saute).
    Add mushrooms; cook (as needed) until soft.
    Add flour; stir thoroughly until there are no lumps.
    Supplement liquid from instant pot with chicken bouillon (as needed) to make 2 cups.
    Add chicken broth and half-and-half to instant pot; bring to a boil.
    Stir until thickened.
  3. Add peas, pimientos, chicken:
    Stir in frozen peas and shredded chicken.
    Drain the pimientos and add.
  4. Serve over biscuits (or rice, or toast).
