Steps

Set a 6-quart Instant Pot to Sauté and heat the olive oil.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then brown it for 3 minutes per side.
Add the onion and cook for 4 minutes, then stir in the paprika, onion powder, coriander, chili pepper, parsley, and oregano.
Pour in the tomatoes, scrape the pot, and stir in the olives.
Lock the lid and cook on high pressure for 12 minutes, then let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes.
Release the remaining pressure, open the pot, and check that the chicken reaches 165 F before adding fresh parsley.
