Pressure Cooker Russian Chicken Recipes

RUSSIAN BORSCHT

Steps:

• Turn your Instant Pot or Pressure cooker to Sauté. When it is hot, add chopped bacon and cook for 3-4 minutes until the edges are crisped.
• Add chopped onion, chopped garlic cloves, and large chopped carrots, tomatoes, short ribs, and all remaining spices from the first cooking cycle. This step cooks the meat while also making a rich meat stock.
• Set the pot to cook on high pressure for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, using a coarse grater or a zoodler, grate the beets and carrots and set aside. I used this old-fashioned salad shooter that I absolutely love.
• When the pot is done cooking, allow it to sit undisturbed for 10 minutes, and then release all pressure.
• Add the additional water, vegetables, and vinegar.
• Seal the pot and cook for 1 minute and high pressure. This will cook the vegetables just enough.

• You can also serve with a side of dark rye bread toasted with olive oil and rubbed with a garlic clove.
