Directions
- 1
Place all ingredients into the pressure cooker at once — no need to thaw the chicken: tomatoes, onion, oil, stock cube, paprika and salt.
- 2
Add a pinch of dried oregano if you like a more herbaceous flavour.
- 3
Seal the lid and bring to high heat. Once the valve starts releasing steam, reduce to medium heat and cook for 8 minutes.
- 4
Turn off the heat and allow the pressure to release naturally. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve with the cooking broth.
💡 Chef's Tip
Don't exceed 8 minutes of pressure cooking to keep the chicken moist. The leftover broth is perfect for cooking rice or pasta as a side dish.
