Quick Curried Rice with Chicken

This moist and colorful pilaf-enriched with coconut milk and dotted with bright green peas-provides a creative way to use leftover cooked chicken.

3 minutes High Pressure plus an 8 minute Natural Pressure Release. Then 1 to 2 minutes of additional steeping.

1 TBL Oil
1 tsp whole cumin seeds
1 tsp fennel seeds
2 cups extra-long-grain white rice
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
One 14 oz can unsweetened coconut milk
1 1/2 TBL mild currey powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 cup of boiling water if needed
4 cups diced cooked chicken, warmed
1 1/2 cups frozen peas (rinsed)

Heal the oil in your Fagor cooker on the browning option. Add the cumin and fennel seeds and cook, stirring constantly, until they turn a shade darker and become fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Toss in the rice and coat with the oil and seeds. Stir in broth, coconut milk, currey and salt.

Lock the lid into place. Select the HIGH setting for pressure cooking. Maintin high pressure cooking for 3 minutes and allow pressure to come down naturally for an addtional 8 minutes. Quick release any remaining pressure.

Remove lid carefully, tilting it away from you to allow excess steam to escape.

Adjust for salt or curry powder to taste if necessary. If rice in not quite tender, stir in the boiling water as you add the chicken and peas. Set but do not lock lid in place and allow to heat through for a minute or two.

Stir well before serving.
Serves 4 to 6.
