This is one of our all time favorite slow cooker meals. One that cooked for hours to get the potatoes soft. I tried it in the pressure cooker and WOW!!! It was done start to finish in 30 minutes! That’s prep, cooking, and on the table in a 1/2 hour!!
Pressure Cooker Smothered Chicken and Red Potatoes
This is so easy, chop onion, cut potatoes into 1/4″ slices, cut chicken into bit sized pieces, combine the 3 cans of soup and that’s pretty much it! Set the pressure cooker to saute and add a T of oil to lightly brown the chicken, add chopped onion, layer the potatoes on top, and pour over the soups. Lock down the lid and set to poultry for 10 mins and start getting out your dishes cause dinner is going to be done before you can sit down.
This is perfect for families on the go that need a quick but hearty, healthy meal. We are still experimenting but expect to have many other recipes soon.
