PRESSURE-COOKER COLA BBQ CHICKEN



Pressure-Cooker Cola BBQ Chicken image

This recipe is really easy, and the sauce is filled with sweet smoky deliciousness. It is not a thick sauce, but you can easily put a little more on the top of each sandwich if you'd like. The meat is juicy and tender, and I enjoy adding a few tasty toppings to my sandwiches: sliced dill pickles and slices of pepper jack cheese. This recipe is for a pressure cooker, but it also can be made in the slow cooker-just cook on low for 8 hours. -Ashley Lecker, Green Bay, Wisconsin

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 cup BBQ sauce
1/2 cup water
1 (4-pound) whole chicken, quartered, with skin removed
1/4 teaspoon salt

Add the chicken, leg quarters first, then the breasts, meaty sides up. Lock the lid in place. Bring to high pressure over high heat. Adjust the heat to maintain pressure. Cook for 10 minutes. Quick release the pressure and open lid. Transfer the chicken to an oiled broiler rack. Season the chicken with the salt and pepper and set aside. Position the broiler pan 6 inches from the source of the heat and preheat broiler. Meanwhile, bring the cooking liquid in the pot to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook uncovered, stirring often to avoid scorching until the sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes. Brush the chicken with the sauce. Broil until glazed, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn, brush with additional sauce, and broil until the other side is glazed. Serve hot, with the additional sauce on the side.
