1
In the pressure cooker fry the bacon until crisp. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked bacon to a bowl and set aside. Add the 1 tablespoon oil to the pressure cooker and bring to a hot temperature.
2
Season with salt and pepper the chicken pieces. To the pot add the pieces of cut-up chicken and brown in batches in the bacon fat and oil. Transfer cooked pieces to the bowl with the bacon once it's lightly browned.
3
Add the carrot and celery to the pressure cooker; saute for 2 minutes. Add the onions; saute for 3 minutes or until they begin to brown. Add the garlic, mushrooms, thyme, and parsley; saute for 5 minutes or until the mushrooms have released their moisture.
4
Stir in the wine and cognac. Return the bacon and chicken pieces. Lock the lid into place and bring to low pressure; maintain pressure for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, quick-release the pressure and remove the lid.
5
In a bowl, whisk the cornstarch into the water. Return the pressure cooker to medium heat. Bring to a simmer and whisk in the cornstarch slurry.
6
Simmer for 3 minutes or until the sauce is thick and glossy and the cornstarch flavor has cooked out of the sauce. Adjust seasoning and add salt and pepper to taste.
