Instant Pot Mediterranean Chicken

This is a delicious dinner that is quick, healthy, and has the flavors of the Mediterranean.  This recipe takes about 15 minutes to prepare and about 20 minutes cooking time.

I found this recipe  on one of my favorite websites, Taste of Home.  The recipe was very easy to prepare and it tasted delicious. Everything came out perfectly cooked.    It was loved by the entire family.  I will be making this recipe again soon.
