Pressure Cooker Chicken Thighs with Red Wine and Carrots Recipe

Makes 4-6 servings

Ingredients: 3/4 cup (180 ml) chicken broth, 1½ tablespoons all-purpose flour, 4 thin bacon slices, chopped, 8 bone-in and skin-on chicken thighs, trimmed, 1 medium yellow onion, peeled and chopped, 4 medium carrots, chunked, 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary leaves, minced, 1 tablespoon stemmed fresh thyme leaves, 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, 3/4 cup (180 ml) dry red wine

Instructions: In a medium mixing bowl, combine chicken broth and all-purpose flour. Whisk until the flour dissolves. Set aside. Place chopped bacon in a 6-quart (6 L) stovetop pressure cooker. Set over medium heat (if you are using an electric pressure cooker, turn to the browning function). Fry, stirring occasionally, until crisp, for about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove cooked bacon from the pan and transfer it to a big bowl.

Add half of the chicken thighs, skin side down. Brown well, turning once, for about 5-6 minutes. Using a wooden spatula, transfer them to the bowl with the bacon. Repeat with the remainder of the thighs.

Drain all but 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of fat from the pan. Add chopped onion and cook, stirring, until translucent, for about 4 minutes. Stir in the carrots, rosemary, thyme, and black pepper. Cook, stirring continuously, until aromatic, for a further 1 minute.

Pour in dry red wine and scrape up any browned bits in the bottom of the pressure cooker as it comes to a simmer. Pour in the broth mixture and mix well. Return browned chicken thighs, bacon, and any accumulated juices to the pot.

Close the pressure cooker and lock the lid. Set burner heat to high pressure. When the cooker reaches high pressure, reduce heat to low. Set the timer to cook for 12 minutes (if you are using an electric pressure cooker, set the machine to cook at high pressure (9-11 psi). Set the timer to cook for 18 minutes).

Open pressure cooker, using the Quick Release method. Unlock and open the pot. Transfer cooked chicken thighs and carrots to serving plates. Top with the sauce. Serve hot.
