Our Test Kitchen used sliced peppers and onion to give this tender chicken dinner its attractive look. A homemade sweet-and-sour sauce delivers a hint of orange while slivered almonds offer a nice crunch.

Ingredients

  • 1 broiler/fryer chicken (3 to 4 pounds), cut up
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, halved and sliced
  • 1/2 medium green pepper, julienned
  • 1/2 medium sweet yellow pepper, julienned
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated orange peel
  • 2-1/2 cups water
  • ORANGE SAUCE:

  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

Directions

  • Place on a rack in pressure cooker; add water. Close over securely; place pressure regulator on vent pipe. Bring cooker to full pressure over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-high; cook for 12 minutes. (Pressure regulator should maintain a slow steady rocking motion; adjust heat if needed.)
