STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS - PRESSURE COOKER RECIPE

STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS 
PRESSURE COOKER RECIPE
DINNER AT HOME

Once again went to my Bob Warden's Great Food Fast Cookbook and looked for a recipe that I could do without having to go to the store and buy stuff.  We had some large Chicken Breasts so I looked in the Chicken section of the cookbook.  Found the Stuffed Chicken Breast recipe and then checked our pantry to see what I could use to stuff the chicken.  Was surprised to find Olive Tapenade and Roasted Peppers that were part of a gift basket that we received probably a year or two ago.  Perfect for this dish I thought.  The recipe is pretty simple to follow.  I had a bit of trouble trying to turn the chicken breasts after they browned on one side.  I paired the Chicken Breasts with some Orzo Pasta and Carrots glazed in butter and honey.  The only thing that I would change doing this dish again would be to add some type of sauce over the chicken.  It was a bit dry and needed a sauce to really make this great.  You may buy the Bob Warden cookbook on Amazon via the link below:
