Instructions

  • Season the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning generously.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 4–5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté the minced garlic for about a minute until aromatic.
  • Add the halved baby potatoes and cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally until they begin to soften and crisp on edges.
  • Return the seared chicken to skillet, nestling it among the potatoes.
  • Cover with a lid or pressure cooker lid to seal and simmer under pressure for 10–12 minutes.
  • Use quick or slow release to safely release pressure. Open lid once float valve drops.
  • Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving for a fresh finish.

Notes

Store leftovers in airtight containers in the fridge for 3–4 days. Reheat gently on stovetop or sauté function of pressure cooker.
