Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 (6 ounce) bone-in chicken thighs, with skin
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 stalks celery, chopped
½ onion, chopped
1 (4 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
2 teaspoons herbes de Provence
¾ cup water
3 cubes chicken bouillon, crumbled
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 pinch ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Rinse chicken thighs and pat dry with paper towels. Heat oil in the pot of an electric pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) on "Saute" mode; add chicken. Cook until browned, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a plate, reserving drippings in the pot.
  • Place celery, onion, and mushrooms in the pot; cook and stir until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Place chicken back in the pot; add tomatoes and tomato paste. Sprinkle with herbes de Provence. Top with water and bouillon.
  • Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build. Cook for 11 minutes.
  • Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove lid carefully, turning it away from you. Test chicken for doneness; an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Season the chicken to taste with red pepper flakes and black pepper.
