Perfectly seasoned, juicy and tender, these Pressure Cooker Chicken Thighs are one of the easiest weeknight recipes to pull together! I found this recipe on Delish, and I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again – Delish has a TON of amazing recipes, including the one I’m featuring today! I gave their unlimited membership a try last year, so I am speaking from my own (read: they are not paying me for this review) experiences. The membership cost me $20 for the year, and it includes a wonderful year-long subscription to their quarterly magazine filled with delicious (and easy!) recipes, unlimited access to Delish recipes, members-only access to a one-on-one hotline to ask for help from their food editors, and other wonderful bonuses. You can learn more about their membership here; this is a code I found online, as I believe the normal cost is $35/year, but this code looks like you can still get it for $20/year, which is great! I have found it to be extremely useful, although I have not yet taken advantage of their hotline – yet.

For this recipe, I used my Deluxe Multi Cooker:

Deluxe Multi Cooker

Pressure Cooker, Sous Vide Cooker, Slow Cooker, Yogurt Maker, and Sterilizer

Our pressure cooker offers so many ways to get a delicious meal on the table with minimal effort and perfect results, every time. In addition to quick cooking—fast, flavorful meals cooked up to 70% faster than other methods even from frozen—and no-fuss slow cooking so it does it thing while you’re doing yours, you can sous vide, the secret to restaurant-quality steaks, fish, and more. With sous vide, you pick the temperature, and it cooks to the exact doneness you love, every time! No more undercooked centers and overcooked outsides. After your food reaches your perfect doneness, it can stay put for up to two hours without overcooking, giving you lots of wiggle room for serving. Plus, there is a yogurt function so you can make homemade yogurt with just two ingredients and less than 5 minutes of hands-on time, and you can even sterilize bottles and utensils. All of this without ever turning on the oven!

Confident Cooking

With 16 preprogrammed settings at your fingertips, you can cook everything from meat, rice, and beans to desserts minus the guesswork. Some added features include an indicator that shows at-a-glance progress of preheating, cooking, and warming so you always know the status of what you’re making and two lid rest slots on the back so you can securely rest the lid on the Deluxe Multi Cooker instead of your counter. The steam release button is safely positioned to keep your hands away from any steam and the outside of the unit stays cool even while in use.

Product Details

6-qt. (5.6-L) capacity; 13″ x 15″ x 13″ (33 cm x 38 cm x 33 cm)

Includes a stainless-steel inner pot, wire rack, and silicone seal which are all dishwasher-safe, and a cooking guide with recipes and cooking charts.

16 preprogrammed settings: Custom, Sear, Egg, Poultry, Beef/Pork, Seafood, White Rice, Whole Grains, Soup, Beans, Dessert, Steam, Slow Cook, Sous Vide, Yogurt, and Sterilize.

Ingredients

  • 6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
  • 2 teaspoons freshly chopped thyme
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Instructions

Slice garlic and set aside.

Season chicken all over with chopped thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Set Deluxe Multi Cooker to SEAR/HIGH, 15 minutes. Add oil to pot, then add in chicken thighs skin-side down. Sear 4 minutes per side until golden, then sear the other side for three minutes.  Sear chicken in batches as needed.  Remove chicken from pot.

Add the sliced garlic to the inner pot and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add chicken broth to inner pot, scraping any browned bits (fond) from the bottom of the pot; add in thyme sprigs.

Place the Deluxe Multi Cooker Steamer Basket inside the inner pot, then place the chicken inside the basket. Lock the lid, set to POULTRY, 12 minutes. Press button to start. Once timer goes off, allow pressure to release naturally.

Carefully remove chicken and basket. Remove thyme sprigs. Place back on SEAR.

Remove three tablespoons of the hot broth from the pot and add to the flour, whisking until smooth. Pour mixture into the pot, whisking constantly while mixture comes back to a simmer.  Cook until gravy is slightly thickened, approximately 5-6 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 

Pour some of the gravy over the chicken, and serve the rest on the side.

Creamy and buttery, these pressure cooker mashed potatoes are an easy-to-make side dish to serve at your Thanksgiving dinner, or anytime! For this recipe, I used my Deluxe Multi Cooker to cook the potatoes, and our Insulated Serving Bowl Set to keep them (and other sides) warm afterwards.  Here is the information on these two wonderful products:

  • Separate display screen lets you adjust chime volume, brightness, Fahrenheit or Celsius, and adjust for high-altitude cooking if needed.

Insulated Serving Bowl Set

For holidays, potlucks, or any big meal, it can feel nearly impossible to keep everything warm. With this insulated serving bowl set, you can keep foods warm up to 2 hours. The bowls have double-walled vacuum insulation to keep food hot, prevent sweating, and stay cool to the touch. Works with cold foods, too!

Each bowl comes with a clear plastic lid that’s double-walled and lets you see what’s inside. The lids hook on the sides of the bowls for easier serving.

Product Details

This set includes the following items (see individual product pages for more information).

1-qt. Insulated Serving Bowl

  • Keep hot dips and sides warm up on your holiday table or during mealtimes.

2.5-qt. Insulated Serving Bowl

  • Keep side dishes warm and ready to serve during the holidays, at family potlucks, and for weeknight dinner.

I would be remiss if I did not mention our Potato Masher:

A Wire Potato Masher That Fits in Your Drawer

Hand mashing potatoes makes them light and fluffy. That’s why a potato masher is a good tool to have around. Ours has a durable, broad stainless-steel wire head that’s excellent for mashing potatoes, root vegetables, avocados, hard-boiled eggs, and fruit. The ergonomic handle is designed to feel comfortable in your hand, and is perfectly balanced so that it won’t roll. When you squeeze the sides of the masher, it folds down and fits nicely in a kitchen drawer.

Tender, melt-in-your-mouth beef and veggies in a delicious gravy, this easy one-pot recipe is sure to be a family favorite!  I’ve seen many recipes for pot roast with wine, but I wanted to use the Guinness Stout I had leftover from a gathering, as I had used it in a beef stew and that had such a wonderful flavor. You can make this using a pressure cooker as well, which is great when you want a delicious dinner, but don’t want to wait eight hours.

For this recipe, I used the Rockcrok® Digital Slow Cooker Stand, which pairs with the Rockcrok® Dutch Oven:

Rockcrok® Digital Slow Cooker Stand

Slow Cook & Keep Warm

Take your Rockcrok® Dutch Oven or Everyday Pan and turn it into a slow cooker with the Rockcrok® Digital Slow Cooker Stand. The slow cooker lets you cook food on your own time, or easily transfer it from the oven or stove top directly into the stand to keep it warm. Control the temperature and timing of your food with the stand’s digital display and keep your cabinets tidy with compact cord storage for when you aren’t using the stand. Two inset handles make lifting easy, and the stand even wipes clean for simple cleanup.

Rockcrok® Dutch Oven

COOK ANY MEAL FOR A CROWD

The Rockcrok® Dutch Oven is the perfect size for cooking for a crowd, and unlike other types of ceramic cookware, you can use Rockcroks® right away without needing to preseason. The large Rockcrok® Dutch Oven perfect for anything—appetizers, bread, casseroles, braised meats, soups, and more! You’ll never run out of possibilities with this durable, versatile piece.

Rockcrok® Collection

Calling our Rockcrok® Collection versatile is an understatement. It’s made from durable, high-quality clay that’s heat-safe to 752°F (400°C), so you can sear, braise, simmer, slow cook, fry, boil, bake, broil, microwave, and grill in one pan. Rockcrok® pieces transfer effortlessly from freezer to stove top to oven and back again, all while creating savory roasts, crisp crusts, moist cakes, and one-pot wonders. Since they’re dishwasher-safe, you’ll find reasons to use these lightweight alternatives to cast-iron cookware every day.

Combine the butter and flour to make a paste, and stir into the stew if the gravy is not thick enough.  You may remove the Rockcrok® Dutch Oven from the Rockcrok®Digital Slow Cooker Stand to finish gravy on the stove top, if you prefer.

Remove the bay leaf and rosemary sprigs; serve over mashed potatoes.

Tender and easy to throw together, you can make this succulent Asian Style Shredded Beef that’s incredibly delicious and cooked in one hour!! This is simply a recipe that I threw together with ingredients that I had on hand.  My family loved it, and I will definitely make this again, since it is one of those easy dinners to make and tastes even better the next day!
