Ingredients
1 lb (450 g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs
3 tbsp oil
6 stalks celery
3 green bell peppers
1⁄3 lb (150 g) kielbasa sausage
1 can (14 oz/398 ml) crushed tomatoes
6 cups water
1⁄2 cup corn starch
1⁄4 cup cold water
Preparation
PROGRAMMABLE PRESSURE COOKER:
Cube chicken. Program pressure cooker to “SAUTÉ.” Heat oil; add chicken and sauté 5 min.
Meanwhile, cube celery and peppers. You should have about 3 cups of each. Slice sausage. Add veggies, sausage, seasoning, tomatoes, and water to pressure cooker.
Secure lid. Place steam release valve in the “SEALING” position. Program to HIGH pressure and set the timer for 4 min. It will take some time for the pressure cooker to get to the proper temperature before the timer will start to count down.
Using a long-handled spoon, push the steam release handle to the “ VENTING” position. Release pressure completely before opening lid.
In Prep Bowl, whisk together corn starch and cold water. Stir into stew and simmer until thick.
Serve with rice, if desired.
