Servings: persons

1 tablespoon olive oil
3 shallots, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, seeded and finely diced
1/2 cup white wine (not cooking wine)
10 ounces mushrooms, sliced
3 lbs bone-in skinless chicken breast halves or 3 lbs skinless chicken thighs
2 cups crushed tomatoes
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 (6 ounce) can pitted black olives or (6 ounce) can kalamata olives, drained
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese or 1/2 cup romano cheese

1
Heat the oil in a 4-quart or larger cooker. Add the shallots and bell pepper and cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until the shallots soften slightly, about 2 minutes.
2
Stir in the wine and boil until about half evaporates. Scrape up any browned bits sticking to the bottom of the cooker.
3
Stir in the mushrooms and garlic. Set the chicken on top. Cover the chicken with crushed tomatoes. Do not stir. Plop the tomato paste on top.
4
Lock the lid in place.
5
Over high heat bring to high pressure. Reduce the heat just enough to maintain high pressure and cook for 8 minutes.
6
Turn off the heat.
7
Allow the pressure to come down naturally. Remove the lid, tilting it away from you to allow steam to escape.
8
Stir in the olives, parsley, red pepper flakes, cheese, and salt and pepper, to taste.
