Ingredients

  • 6 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
  • 2 large onions, halved and thinly sliced
  • 4 long strips lemon zest
  • 4 sprigs fresh dill, plus 2 tablespoons chopped
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus additional for seasoning
  • 4 bone-in chicken breast halves, skin removed (2 1/2 to 3 pounds)
  • 2 cups chicken broth

Directions

Put the carrots, onions, lemon zest, dill sprigs, and olive oil in a 7-liter pressure cooker. Season the vegetables with the 1/2 teaspoon salt and the chicken with salt, to taste. Pour the broth in the pot, then nestle the chicken meat side down on top of the vegetables.

Close the pressure cooker lid, bring the pressure up to high (this can take up to 10 minutes). Adjust the heat, if necessary, to maintain an even high pressure for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and use the quick-release method to bring down the pressure.

Stir the chopped dill into the chicken stew. Put 1 chicken breast in each of 4 large soup bowls and ladle some carrots and broth over each one.

    This was delish!!!! I prepared it in exactly 30 minutes. Additions were 1 stalk of lemon grass (that I just happen to have in the fridge and 1/2 tsp of coriander and rosemary instead of dill. My kids went crazy over it. This is one that lingers on your taste buds and you just want to keep eating it .

    delicious fast dinner. I browned the chicken, onions and carrots and added potatoes for more body. The lemon and dill added great flavor. More like great soup than stew.

    I used rosemary instead and it was better than the dill.
