Pressure Cooker Chicken Cacciatore
Chicken cacciatore is one of those heart-warming comfort foods in any Italian kitchen. It’s simply chicken, braised with vegetables and a tomato sauce. It’s a perfect dish to serve over pasta, rice or potatoes.
The sauce for this dish turned out so flavorful that we even ate is as a soup at the end!
Using a high-quality pressure cooker – like our Fissler Vitavit Edition Design 8 L pressure cooker – allowed us to cook this recipe for only 20 minutes and achieve a juicy, tender, fall-off-the-bone chicken that you would normally get with slow oven braising.
Ingredients for this recipe:
- 5 chicken drumsticks, skinless
- 1 cup chicken stock
- 1 cup onion, diced
- 1 cup carrots, sliced
- 1 cup celery, sliced
- 1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
- 24 oz of Rao’s Tomato Sauce
- Parmesan Cheese
- Egg Papparedelle Noodles
Instructions:
- Cook the pappardelle noodles, drain, cool, mix with olive oil and set aside.
- Put the chicken stock, onions, chicken, celery, onions, basil, mushrooms and tomato sauce in the pressure cooker. Lock lid in place.
- Cook on high pressure for 20 minutes with quick pressure release at the end.
