2 Reviews of Pressure Cooker Whole Chicken

Wow! I have often cooked chicken in a pressure cooker before...but never browned it first and the difference in appearance and flavor is incredible. Of course the meat is as moist as you could possibly get it since it was cooked in the pressurized steam. You get a beautiful whole chicken...which would make a lovely presentation. You also get good flavors throughout the meat because of the seasonings being seared into the meat prior to processing. This method would make a very nice dinner. You could easily make some gravy from the rich drippings and serve with some mashed potatoes and a vegatable for a complete hearty meal. I plan to let the meat cool and refrigerate for chicken salad sandwiches. Made for PAC Fall 2009.

I love this recipe. I have never seared chicken that was going to be cooked in a pressure cooker. I have a dry rub that I use inside of the chicken, garlic and onion salt. I must say that it brought out the flavor more after searing, because it stayed in one piece. Thank you for posting. I have used a pressure cooker for many years and this has been a new and delightful lesson for me. Thanks!
