Instant pot chicken cupcatchatol recipe. A tomato-based sauce, rich, hearty Italian hunter style, with soft stewed chicken thighs. Apply pressure to place it on the table in about an hour.
Jump:
It’s when my annual ode is putting pressure on chicken thighs. This time I’m introducing them in Instant Pot Chicken Catchatore.
Chicken thighs are great for pressure cooking and are much more tolerant than chicken breast. It is almost impossible to overcook chicken thighs. The chicken breast has a narrow “finish” window that then dries and becomes thread-like. The best chicken breasts are made at an internal temperature of exactly 160°F. Chicken thighs are excellent at 170°F and 180°F. See you on the dark side of chicken!
Chicken cupcatchatol, an Italian hunter-style chicken stewed in onions, tomatoes and garlic, is a great place to cook chicken thighs. This recipe also has plenty of pot liquids. Serve with pasta, rice or mashed potatoes. (And bread for soaking juice is also a good idea.) Want to take part in the dark side of chicken? Try chicken cupcatchatol.
Ingredient notes and alternatives
Chicken Thighs: As mentioned above, chicken thighs are the perfect cut for this recipe. It can replace drumsticks fairly well, but chicken breasts tend to dry out under pressure. Boneless or boneless chicken: This recipe is traditionally cooked with bone skin chicken. If you want to use boneless chicken, tug the boneless chicken and return the pressure cooking time to 10 minutes. No Alcohol: Don’t want to use wine? Use more chicken (or water). Mushrooms: Porto Vero Mushrooms are Italian, so we use Bella mushrooms in this recipe. That being said, I don’t notice any major differences with regular white mushrooms, so they are great alternatives. (Or skip mushrooms if it’s anti-hungus in the food).
Use frozen chicken
Yes, you can use frozen chicken thighs. Increase the pressure cooking time for 5 minutes (25 minutes at high pressure). The only other change is to sprinkle salt and pepper after the brown step. Salt and pepper bounce back through frozen thighs.
How to thicken the sauce
Pressure cooking leads to thin sauces – there is no evaporation, so the liquid will not be boiled down. I’m fine with that – there’s a lot of delicious liquids in the pot. However, if you want a thick, stewy, cacciatoll, there are a few options.
Remove the lid and simmer after pressure cooking: Remove the lid after natural pressure release. Fry the instant pot to mode mode, the liquid in the pot becomes high until the liquid in the pot boils, lower the heat and fry the mode, boil the pot for 15 minutes to thicken the liquid. (Use a Stovetop PC to boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low.) Cook pasta in a pan: Use small pasta shapes to absorb liquids. After natural pressure release, unlock the pot and stir in 1 cup of ditarini (or another small pasta shape). Simmer the pasta for 8 minutes (or if the packaging is cooked). printing

Instant Pot Chicken Catcha Tall Recipe
author: Mike vrobel
Total time: 1 hour 15 minutes
yield: 8 Chicken thighs too 1x
explanation
Instant pot chicken cupcatchatol. Italian hunter style chicken thighs stewed in a pressure cooker.
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 Chicken thighs (approx. 3 lb)
1½ tsp Thin sea salt
½ 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
8 oz Thinly sliced baby portobello mushrooms (or white button mushrooms)
1 Medium onion, diced
2 Medium peppers, diced (with red and green peppers for the colour)
3 Garlic, sliced garlic
1 tsp Dried Italian seasonings (or dried oregano)
½ 1 teaspoon of fine sea salt
½ Cup Dried White Wine (Pino Grigio)
1 cup Chicken Bouillon (preferably homemade or water)
15– Ounce can be diced
1 tablespoon Fresh chopped basil (for decoration)
Instructions
Brown chicken thigh skin: Heat olive oil over medium high heat until sparkling. (I use the adjusted saute mode in an instant pot pressure cooker.) Sprinkle salt and pepper on the chicken thighs. Bake the sides of the thigh skin in two batches: Place four thighs in a pan, place the skin underneath, and bake for about 5 minutes until the skin is golden brown. Move the brown chicken thighs into the bowl and bake the second batch of thighs for about 5 more minutes. It also moves to the bowl. The thighs render a large amount of fat. Pour everything except 1 tablespoon of fat from the pot before proceeding to the next step. Fry aromatics: Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook without moving until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the onions, peppers and garlic to the pan and sprinkle with Italian seasonings and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir and scrub the pan with a flat wooden spoon until the onions are tender, about 5 more minutes to loosen the brown chicken from the bottom. Bring the wine to boil and then put everything in the pan. Pour the wine and simmer. Simmer some of the alcohol for 1 minute to bring to a boil, then finally scrape the bottom of the pot. Pour in the chicken soup and stir in the juice into the chicken thighs and bowl. Sprinkle the diced tomatoes over everything. Pressure cooking for 20 minutes with natural pressure release: Lock the pressure cooker lid. Cook at high pressure in an instant pot or other electric PC for 20 minutes or in a Stovetop PC for 16 minutes. (Use manual, pressure cook, or pressure cooking – custom mode with instant pot). Reduce the pressure naturally and lower it for another 20 minutes. (If you’re in a hurry, you can quickly release the remaining pressure after 15 minutes.) Serve: Place chicken thighs (or two) on each plate and top with liquid ladles (or two) from the pot. Sprinkle with chopped fresh basil on top, serve and enjoy!
