Recipe For Chicken Caccitore In The Pressure Cooker

Ingredients For Chicken Caccitore


Chicken pieces or chicken breasts
sliced mushrooms
1 onion
2 green bell peppers
1 zucchini
punnet of grape or cherry tomatoes
large tin of tomatoes
tomato paste
crushed red pepper flakes about a teaspoon
olive oil
italian seasoning 1 or 2 T
salt
pepper
minced garlic - one or two teaspoons
fresh rosemary about 3 or 4 sticks, put whole things in
half to one cup of chicken stock

Method



Put some olive oil in pressure cooker and brown chicken,
Remove chicken and set aside for the time being on a plate while you cook onion, until transparent, a couple of minutes, then add all other ingredients to the pressure cooker, including chicken,put lid on pressure cooker and wait for it to build up pressure, then cook for approx 20 minutes. Once cooked release pressure and remove rosemary sticks, give a stir and is ready to serve.

This is a recipe I've made to be my own over time and taste testing. Traditionally black olives are also part of Chicken Caccitore but I omit them, as my kids are not fans of olives. Easy to add with all the rest of the ingredients. I find this recipe to be flavourful and popular with the kids.

Apricot Paprika Chicken

First time making this Apricot Paprika Chicken. It was easy to make and very tasty. I have a sweet tooth so I like the apricots sweetness and honey that was in the recipe. Was not overly sweet though as there was also ginger, white vinegar, white wine and paprika to offset that sweetness. Next time I make it I would use larger chicken pieces and double or even triple the sauce recipe. Loved the sauce. Tasty! :)

Ingredients

Chicken Breast or Chicken Pieces
olive oil
salt and pepper
teaspoon of paprika
half teaspoon of marjoram (can be fresh or dried)
half cup of white wine
half cup of chicken stock

Apricot Sauce
half a cup of apricot jam
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 and half teaspoon of ginger (can be dried or fresh)
4 tablespoons honey

Method

Heat olive oil in pressure cooker, put paprika and salt and pepper on chicken, then brown chicken. Remove chicken and then add wine and stock to pressure cooker.
Mix together apricot sauce ingredients then add to pressure cooker with chicken. Put lid on and let pressure build then reduce heat and cook for about 15 mins.
Release pressure when finished, remove chicken then put heat on pressure cooker with lid off and thicken sauce a little bit more. Pour over chicken, then ready to eat. :)

Recipe for Red Beef Chili

I actually got this recipe from Chef John on the Allrecipes site. I did not change the recipe at that time and here are the photos I took of making it and after.. For me it was a little hot but for other members in my family it was fine. Personal preference for the amout of ancho and chipotle chili powder I think. I have since changed the recipe to suit my own tastes so is less spicy and also added kidney beans to it for extra fibre.
Here are the ingredients....

1 T olive oil
salt and pepper to season beef
chuck beef cut into cubes
1 diced onion
3 cloves garlic
1 Tablespoon Ancho Chili powder
1 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
half teaspoon ground black pepper
half teaspoon chipotle chili powder
quarter teaspoon cayenne pepper
half teaspoon dried oregano
large can diced tomatoes
1 cup beef broth
1 can red kidney beans
1 bunch fresh cilantro to add after cooked
spring onions for garnish
rice as side dish

optional -
sour cream
cheese
corn chips







Heat olive oil in pressure cooker and brown beef that has been seasoned with salt and pepper. Remove from pressure cooker once brown and set aside for time being
Add diced onion and garlic to pressure cooker and cook until onion is transparent.
Add ancho chili, chipotle chili, paprika, cumin, oregano,cayenne and black pepper and cook for about 2 minutes to release flavours.
Add diced tomatoes, beans, beef and stock.
Once pressure cooker has heated up and is ready cook for about 20 minutes.
Serve into bowl and add the spring onions on top and cilantro. Mixing cilantro into the chili after gives it a great flavour.
Serve with rice, or corn chips. Sour cream or cheese added on top. Enjoy!
