4. 04

   Close the lid, set the valve to sealing, and cook on high pressure for 6 minutes.

5. 05

   Perform a quick release, then stir in the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper until the sauce is creamy and smooth.

6. 06

   Return the cooked chicken to the pot and mix to combine.

   Serve with fresh parsley for garnish and extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
