Preparation

Step 1

Brown chicken pieces in the pressure cooker, adding a little oil if necessary. Turn frequently to brown on all sides. Remove chicken to platter; drain fat, reserving 2 tablespoons of drippings; discard remainder. Strain tomatoes, reserving both liquid and solids in separate containers. Heat reserved chicken drippings in the pressure cooker. Saute garlic, onion and peppers until vegetables are crisp-tender. Remove vegetables to a bowl. Return the chicken to the pot, add red pepper or cayenne, salt, bay leaves, black pepper, tomato liquid, wine and half the parsley. Seal the pot and cook at 15 pounds pressure for 5 minutes. Cool cooker at once; return reserved vegetables, zucchini, tomatoes and remaining parsley. Cover and simmer 30 minutes. Serve over pasta. Serve with salad and crisp bread.
