Pressure Cooker Chicken Bog Recipes

Steps:

• Place water, salt and onion in a large pot. Add chicken and bring all to a boil; cook until chicken is tender, about 1 hour.
• Remove chicken from pot and let cool. Remove skin and bones and chop remaining meat into bite size pieces.
• Skim off fat from cooking liquid and measure 3 1/2 cups of this chicken broth into a 6-quart saucepan. Add rice, chicken pieces, sausage, herb seasoning and bouillon to this saucepan. Cook all together for 30 minutes; let come to a boil, then reduce heat to low, keeping pan covered the whole time. If mixture is too watery or juicy, cook over medium low heat, uncovered, until it reaches the desired consistency. Stir often while cooking.

Steps:

• Combine salt, paprika, cayenne, onion powder, thyme, black pepper, white pepper, and garlic powder together in a small bowl. Rub the outside of the chicken and inside the cavity generously with the seasoning mixture.
• Turn on an electric pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Pour oil into the pot and allow to get hot, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Brown chicken in the hot oil on each side (breast side and back side) for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove chicken from the pot and set it aside on a plate. Cancel Sauté function.
• Pour chicken stock into the pot and scrape the bottom with a wooden spoon to loosen any browned bits.
• Place a steamer rack trivet in the bottom of the pressure cooker pot, then place the whole chicken, breast side up, on top of the trivet.
• Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 25 minutes. Allow about 6 minutes for pressure to build.
• Let pressure release naturally according to manufacturer's instructions, 25 to 35 minutes. Unlock lid and remove.
• Open the lid and carefully remove the chicken from the pressure cooker. Allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and sausage; cook until sausage is lightly browned. Add garlic and cook 1 minute longer; transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker., Stir in 4 cups broth, rice, salt and pepper. Cook, covered, on low until rice is tender, 4-5 hours. Stir in chicken and remaining broth. Cook, covered, on low until chicken is heated through, about 30 minutes. If desired, sprinkle with green onions. Serve with hot sauce., Freeze option: Omitting green onions and hot sauce, freeze cooled meat mixture, juices and rice in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Microwave, covered, on high until heated through, stirring gently; add broth or water if necessary.

Steps:

• Rinse and dry the chicken inside and out and pat dry. If there are giblets, or the neck, you can use them to flavor the braise, so rinse them off too, and set them aside.
• Prepare the seasoning by mixing the herbs, olive oil, lemon salt and pepper. Tuck the tips of the wings behind the neck opening of the chicken and brush on the seasoning.
• In a separate pan (or your pressure cooker) brown the seasoned chicken well on all sides- about 10 minutes. This is the only step that will add color to the bird, so don't be shy with the browning!
• Prepare (or de-glaze) the pressure cooker by pouring 1/3 of the beer out of the can and putting half of the lemon zest and one bay leaf into the can, then the other bay leaf and the rest of the lemon zest in the pan, with the can in the middle of the pan.
• Then, lower the chicken into the pressure cooker, sitting it over the can of beer. Before closing the pressure cooker, pour on any of the remaining seasoning, and liquid from the sauté pan over the chicken. If you have any giblets or other parts of the chicken, put those at the bottom of the pan in the braising liquid.
• Close and lock the lid, turn the heat to high. From the time the pan reaches pressure lower the heat and count 20-25 minutes cooking time at HIGH pressure. When the cooking time is up, open the pressure cooker using the Normal method - release the pressure by pushing, twisting or opening a valve.
• Carefully remove the chicken pulling from the neck cavity, and not the wings - it will be so tender the wings may come right off in your hands. Place the chicken on the serving platter to rest tented with aluminum foil. Turn the heat up to high and reduce the contents of the pressure cooker without the lid for about 5 minutes.
• Strain, if you had giblets in there, and pour over the chicken and sprinkle with some fresh rosemary before serving.

Steps:

• Heat pressure cooker over medium heat; cook chicken until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Sprinkle paprika, salt, and pepper onto chicken.
• Combine onion, chile sauce, water, and vinegar in a bowl; pour over chicken.
• Cover pressure cooker with lid and cook according to manufacturer's instructions, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and release pressure through natural release method; open pressure cooker carefully.
