• Slowly whisk in the milk and add the peas and pimentos into the instant pot mixture.
• To thicken, whisk together 2 tbsp of flour or cornstarch to 2 tbsp milk. Set aside. Turn to saute mode. Whisk in the flour/milk slurry mixture. Bring it to a simmer. The mixture should start to thicken as it heats.
• ⭐️In a large skillet or saucepan, saute olive oil, onions, and mushrooms until onions are translucent.
• ⭐️Add butter. Once the butter is melted, whisk in flour and let cook for 30 seconds. Slowly whisk in chicken broth, allowing it to return to a simmer before adding more liquid. Slowly whisk in milk, allowing it to return to a simmer before adding more liquid.
• ⭐️Stir in chicken, peas, salt, pepper, and pimentos. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Set Instant Pot to Saute: More. Add butter and allow to melt. Add garlic and saute until it just turns golden brown, about a minute. Add in shallots, red pepper, celery, carrots and mushrooms. After about minutes, season with a pinch of salt and pepper and dust with all-purpose flour. Add sherry wine to deglaze the the pot, scraping up and brown bits that have stuck to the bottom.
• Add parsley and chicken thighs. Stir everything together before pouring in your chicken stock. Close lid and set Instant Pot to Manual: High for 10 minutes. When it's done, perform a quick release. [Note: covering the vent by holding a paper towel over it with tongs will help to keep the sauce from spitting out.] While the pressure is releasing, mix together cornstarch and cold water to make a slurry.
• Add cayenne pepper, half and half and your cornstarch slurry. Season with a pinch more salt and pepper and stir together well. Set Instant Pot to Saute: More and simmer, while cooking, for about 5 minutes. You're done when the sauce is about as thick as a gravy. Taste and adjust for salt, pepper, or heat (cayenne) as needed. Reduce heat to low and serve immediately in a large bowl over cooked rice.

Reduce the heat, stir in the shredded chicken, and simmer for 7 minutes.
