Description

Making fried chicken in a pressure cooker is a quick and easy way to get the classic KFC flavors right at home. Pressure cooked fried chicken comes out juicy and tender with a crispy and flavorful coating. Preparing the chicken in a pressure cooker also helps to lock in flavor and takes much less time than traditional deep frying. With this recipe, you'll be able to enjoy those classic KFC flavors in just a fraction of the time.

Ingredients

For this recipe, you'll need the following ingredients:

  • 2 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup of buttermilk
  • 1 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons of paprika
  • 1 tablespoon of garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

To make this pressure cooker fried chicken, follow these steps:

  1. Cut the chicken breasts into small cubes, about 1-2 inches in size.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the buttermilk, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and salt. Whisk to combine.
  3. Pour the buttermilk mixture over the cubed chicken and mix to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Place the flour in a shallow bowl. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk mixture and dredge each piece in the flour, making sure to cover completely. Place the floured chicken cubes on a plate or baking sheet.
  5. Add the vegetable oil to the pressure cooker and heat over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the chicken cubes in batches, being sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry the chicken for 3-4 minutes, or until lightly golden brown and crispy.
  6. Remove the chicken from the pressure cooker and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Serve hot.
