Ingredients
Scale
For the Turkey:
- 3–4 lb turkey breast, boneless and skinless
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
For the Gravy:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup turkey or chicken broth (from the Instant Pot)
Instructions
Prepare the Turkey
- Season the Turkey: Rub the turkey breast with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and thyme.
- Sauté: Turn the Instant Pot to the sauté function. Add the olive oil and brown the turkey breast on all sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Pressure Cook: Add the chicken broth to the Instant Pot, then close the lid and set the valve to sealing. Pressure cook on high for 40 minutes.
- Release Pressure: After the cooking time is up, allow the pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes, then quick release any remaining pressure.
Make the Gravy
- Remove Turkey and Set Aside: Carefully remove the turkey from the Instant Pot and set it on a cutting board to rest.
- Make Roux: Turn the Instant Pot to sauté mode again. Melt butter in the pot, then stir in the flour to form a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until golden.
- Add Broth: Slowly whisk in the turkey or chicken broth, scraping up any bits stuck to the bottom of the pot. Continue to stir until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
Serve
- Slice the Turkey: Slice the turkey breast and serve with the homemade gravy poured over the top.
