When we were looking through recipes to make for our “Foodi Friday” segment over on our YouTube channel, we could not believe that we did not already have Electric Pressure Cooker Creamy Mississippi Chicken on the website! We make it ALL the time. This recipe is a regular on our weeknight menus AND we also make it often for special occasions. We adapted our Crock Pot Creamy Mississippi Chicken (which was adapted from our regular Crock Pot Mississippi Chicken) .

If you can’t tell… We LOVE us some Mississippi recipes around here! In fact, here is a list of our other versions:

How to Make Mississippi Chicken Low Carb

While not everyone is comfortable using pre-made packets in their low carb diet, we enjoy Mississippi Chicken as an easy low carb dinner from time to time by substituting the traditional ranch packet for a dill ranch packet or chive and onion packet. Both reduce the carb counts for the entire recipe by 16 carbs. Additionally we make sure to use AuJus Gravy packets instead of higher carb gravy packets– this typically makes the carb count at least 1/4 of what it would be.

You can find these packets in almost any grocery store in the salad dressing aisle and gravy/sauces aisle. We also have them in our Amazon Recommendations under Low Carb Kitchen Favorites.

Like we always say on the blog, carb counts are ALWAYS going to be dependent on the exact ingredients you use– not the recipe itself.

Notes on Creamy Mississippi Chicken (Electric Pressure Cooker)

• We used boneless skinless thighs to make this recipe. Feel free to use the chicken cut of chicken you prefer. Cooking times may vary.
• If using an 8 quart Electric Pressure Cooker, add an extra 1/2 cup of broth.
• Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks, slow cookers and low carb essentials in our Amazon Influencer Shop.
• We make this recipe low carb by using the lowest carb mixes we can find.
• You can find more low carb recipes in our Low Carb Recipe Library that we update weekly.
• As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
• Finally, all electric pressure cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own electric pressure cooker and time adjusted as needed.
