Ingredients

25 g butter
6 skinless chicken thighs cut into large chunks
1 onion finely chopped
2 cloves garlic crushed
2 bay leaves
2 carrots halved lengthways and cut into chunks
1 large leek well washed and thickly sliced
1 large potato chopped into bite-sized chunks
2 tbsp plain flour

Steps

Set a pressure cooker to sauté, melt the butter, and brown the chicken for 5 minutes.
Add the onion, garlic, bay leaves, carrots, leek, and potato, and cook for 4 minutes.
Stir in the flour, then add the wine or cider, chicken stock, and mustard.
Seal the cooker and cook at high pressure for 8 minutes, then release the pressure naturally for 10 minutes.
Open the cooker when the pressure drops, check that the chicken reaches 165 F, and stir in the fresh herbs.
