Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup diced bacon
3 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs, well trimmed
Salt and pepper
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 cup red wine (I used pinot noir)

2 sprigs thyme
2 carrots, sliced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 package (12 ounces) white mushrooms, quartered
2 tablespoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Select Browning and add diced bacon to pressure cooker pot. Brown the bacon until crisp, stirring frequently. Remove bacon to a plate, leaving the bacon fat in the pot.

Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until softened and lightly caramelized. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine to deglaze the pot and let it almost completely evaporate to concentrate the flavor and remove most of the liquid. Stir in the chicken broth, tomato paste, bay leaf , thyme and carrots. Add the browned chicken to the pot, along with any juices that have collected on the platter. Cover pot and lock lid in place. Select High Pressure and 10 minutes cook time. (It will take about 10 minutes to reach high pressure.) While the chicken is cooking, heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add oil and butter. When butter is melted, add the mushrooms and cook until golden. Season with salt and pepper. When timer beeps, do a quick pressure release and remove the chicken from the pressure cooker pot to a serving dish. Combine the cornstarch and water, whisking until smooth. Add cornstarch mixture to the sauce in the pot stirring constantly. Select Simmer and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. After sauce thickens, add mushrooms and stir to coat with sauce. Taste, adjust seasoning if desired. Combine sauce with chicken in the serving bowl. Serve topped with crumbled bacon and chopped parsley.

Traditionally, this French bistro classic involves braising chicken slowly in red wine. But when coq au vin is made in the Instant Pot or pressure cooker, the deeply satisfying flavor is equal to that of traditional stovetop simmering-in about a third of the time. This recipe appears in our cookbook "Martha Stewart's Pressure Cooker" (Clarkson Potter).

Time 55m

Yield 4-6 , 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 whole chicken, cut up (or 2 lb skinless, boneless breasts)
1 large onion, diced
8 ounces white button mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
1 cup dry red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon
28 ounces beef stock
2 bay leaves
6 ounces egg noodles, extra wide, uncooked
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup water
salt and pepper
1/2-1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup flour, seasoned, for dredging
2 -3 tablespoons oil, vegetable, for sauteing

Steps:

  • Dredge chicken pieces in seasoned flour. Heat empty cooker. Add oil.
  • When the oil is hot, brown the chicken. Remove chicken and reserve. Add onions, and brown until they caramelize. Remove onions and reserve. Add mushrooms, and sauté until they give up all their liquid, and the liquid evaporates completely. Unplug the cooker and let it cool briefly.
  • Add wine, beef broth and bay leaves to the cooker. Put cover on, as per instruction booklet. Plug the cooker in, and select the "Stew" function. Cooker should run for 20 minutes, once it gets up to pressure. Unplug the cooker and follow the instruction manual for cooling and opening it at the end of the cooking time.
  • Remove chicken from the cooker. Plug the cooker in, and select the "Stew" function again. Cover with the glass cover and bring the broth and vegetables to a boil. Remove cover. Add the noodles to the broth and cook, uncovered, until tender, stirring often. Meanwhile, mix 2 tablespoons flour with about 1/2 cup water. Blend until completely smooth. Add to cooker, stir well, and cook, stirring constantly but gently, until the sauce thickens. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add 1/2 to 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce to taste.
  • Return chicken to the cooker and heat for 2 or 3 minutes, uncovered. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Cut of Beef: Select a flavorful cut of beef that can withstand the long cooking time in a pressure cooker, such as chuck roast, short ribs, or oxtail.
  • Browning the Beef: Before adding the beef to the pressure cooker, brown it in a large pot or skillet. This step develops rich flavor and adds depth to the final dish.
  • Using a Good Quality Wine: Opt for a full-bodied red wine that has a bold flavor profile. This will enhance the taste of the coq au vin.
  • Adding Vegetables: Incorporate a variety of vegetables into the dish, such as carrots, celery, onions, and mushrooms. These vegetables add sweetness, texture, and nutrition.
  • Using Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves, add a burst of flavor to the coq au vin. Tie them together with kitchen twine for easy removal before serving.
  • Adjusting the Cooking Time: Depending on the cut of beef used and the desired level of tenderness, adjust the cooking time accordingly. Overcooking can result in tough meat, while undercooking may leave the meat chewy.
  • Serving Suggestions: Coq au vin pairs well with various side dishes, such as mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice. For a classic French touch, serve it with a baguette for dipping in the flavorful sauce.

Conclusion:

By following these tips and using quality ingredients, you can create a delicious and comforting coq au vin in your pressure cooker. The combination of tender beef, rich wine sauce, and colorful vegetables makes this dish a perfect choice for special occasions or casual family meals.
