Chicken and Spinach in Curried Pasta Sauce

Type: Chicken, Pasta, Poultry
Courses: Main Course
Serves: 5 people

Recipe Ingredients

1/2 cup 118mlChicken broth or water
3 1/2 lbs 1589g / 56ozChicken parts, preferably thighs - skinned, and
  Well trimmed, (or 2 1/2 lbs boneless,
  Skinless chicken, cut into 1" pieces)
2   Frozen spinach - (10 oz ea) - rinse away any ice
  Crystals
1 1/2 cups 355mlThick tomato pasta sauce
1 tablespoon 15mlMild curry powder - or more to taste
  Salt - to taste
  Chopped fresh cilantro - for garnish

Recipe Instructions

Place the broth and chicken in the cooker. Place the frozen blocks of spinach on top. Pour on the sauce and sprinkle on the curry powder. Gently stir the curry powder into the sauce. (Do not stir the chicken into the sauce; the goal is to prevent scorching the pasta sauce on the bottom while the cooker is coming up to pressure.)

Lock the lid in place. Over high heat, bring to high pressure. Reduce the heat just enough to maintain high pressure and cook for 4 minutes for boneless chicken pieces or 12 minutes for chicken parts. Quick-release the pressure. Remove the lid, tilting it away from you to allow excess steam to escape.

Stir well. Taste the sauce, and add more curry powder and salt, if needed. Garnish portions with chopped cilantro, if you wish.

This recipe yields 5 to 6 servings.
