Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 apples, sliced
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 1 cup apple cider
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp dried rosemary (or 1 sprig fresh)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Set your pressure cooker to sauté mode and heat the olive oil. Add the chicken breasts, searing them for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set aside.
- In the same pot, add the onions and apples, cooking until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the apple cider, Dijon mustard, honey, cinnamon, and rosemary. Return the chicken breasts to the pot, nestling them into the apple and onion mixture.
- Seal the pressure cooker and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes, then manually release the remaining pressure.
- Once done, season with salt and pepper to taste and serve warm.
