Instructions

  1. Marinate Chicken: Combine the chicken thighs with half the olive oil, smoked paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Sear Chicken: Heat the remaining olive oil in the pressure cooker pot over high heat. Sear the marinated chicken thighs on both sides until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  3. Sauté Vegetables: In the same pot, sauté the diced onion, sliced chillies, and garlic for 2-3 minutes until the onion softens.
  4. Add Rice and Stock: Add the rice, stirring briefly to coat. Pour in the chicken stock and add the green beans. Bring to a simmer.
  5. Cook Under Pressure: Place the chicken thighs back on top of the rice, along with any collected juices. Secure the lid and set the cooker to high pressure. Cook for 6 minutes.
  6. Finish and Serve: Release the pressure and open the lid. Remove the chicken, fluff the rice, and serve with chicken on top, garnished with fresh parsley.
