Turkey is a staple in American cuisine, but it often only gets the spotlight on one day of the year: Thanksgiving. Roasted turkey takes center stage on dinner tables across the country on that day, but after that, it’s often forgotten until the next year’s feast. This may be because cooking a whole bird can be quite the undertaking, and it can produce a lot of leftovers for daily meals.
However, there’s no rule that says you have to cook a whole turkey every time you want to enjoy it. A single turkey breast is the perfect size for a family dinner, and the best part is that it can easily be cooked in an Instant Pot! With this approach, you can enjoy a delicious turkey dinner any day of the year, without all the fuss and leftovers that come with roasting a whole bird. So go ahead and satisfy your turkey cravings, no matter what the calendar says!

Just rub it with butter and spices, pour in a cup of chicken broth, and cook on high pressure for half an hour, and your turkey will be tender and juicy. All it takes is a quick toss under the broiler to brown the skin. And if you thicken the juice left in the pot with a little cornstarch in water, you’ll have a delicious golden sauce to go with it.
What if my turkey breast is larger or smaller than the recipe?
A good rule of thumb is to cook it for 6 to 8 minutes per pound if it’s fresh. And always a natural release. You should check the turkey with a digital thermometer once it is done to make sure the temperature is a minimum of 165 degrees F in the thickest part of the breast.
What side dishes go well with Instant Pot Turkey Breast?
Anything you like with your Thanksgiving turkey will also go with this. For a starch, try mashed or baked potatoes, sweet potatoes, or my Easy Crockpot Stuffing. And since you don’t need to wait until November to serve this dish, you can add any vegetables that are in season!
