Instant Pot Chicken & Potatoes in Tomato Sauce

Ingredients:

2 tablespoon olive oil
1 red onion chopped
3 garlic cloves minced
3 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon dried oregano
½ cup water
8 chicken drumsticks
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
8 potatoes
6 tomatoes chopped
1 teaspoon fine table salt

Directions:

Start the pressure cooker in sauté mode on high, and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 3 minutes. If the onion or garlic starts to brown, turn it down to medium.

Add tomato paste and dried oregano and sauté on high for 1 minute.

Deglaze by pouring in the water and stirring to loosen any bits stuck to the bottom of the pot. Then turn off the pressure cooker.

Add chicken drumsticks and mix them in with the sauce.

Add ground black pepper and potatoes, and mix in with the sauce.

Add tomatoes and salt, then close the lid tightly.

Set to pressure cook on high for 10 minutes. First it will build pressure for about 10 minutes, and then the timer will start.

When the cooking time is up, let it sit for 5 minutes. Then release the pressure using the quick release valve.

Serve as it is or together with a piece of bread.
