One of my favorite pressure cooker recipe authors is Barbara Schieving. Author of several cookbooks, she also has a blog called Pressure Cooking Today, which is where the recipe for Pressure Cooker Artichoke Chicken can be found: https://www.pressurecookingtoday.com/pressure-cooker-artichoke-chicken/
Pressure Cooker Artichoke Chicken 101:
1) I brown the breasts in a 5-qt. sauté pan on the stove so that I can do them all at once and save time. I cook them about 3 minutes per side. They do not get very brown but will cook up nice and tender in the pressure cooker. I don't season the chicken until I've already cooked one side. After turning the chicken, I then season the lightly browned top. After placing the chicken into the pressure cooker, add the drippings, too.
2) I make my own chicken broth by using chicken Better Than Bouillon. I use 2 tsp. per 14.5 oz. of water to equal the 14.5 oz. can of broth.
3) The recipe calls for a 14-oz. jar of marinated artichoke hearts. I can't find that size locally, but we like more artichoke hearts in the recipe anyway, so I use 2 12-oz. jars.
4) After the chicken has pressure-cooked, I remove it to a platter so that I have plenty of room to stir the cornstarch mixture into the sauce. After the sauce has thickened, I stir in the drained artichoke hearts, place the breasts back into the sauce, and serve.
5) Long grain rice is a great accompaniment to Artichoke Chicken, and I have two easy recipes for it!
