Method
- Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper to taste.
- Cut the onion into julienne, the green pepper into rings and finely chop the parsley.
- Place the pressure cooker over medium heat with the oil. When hot, add the chicken and let it brown on all sides.

CiberCuba - Add the onion, bay leaf, prunes, green pepper and parsley. Stir to mix everything well.
- Cook for a few minutes until the chicken begins to brown on the outside.
- Cover everything with the dry wine and close the lid of the pressure cooker.
- Cook over medium heat until the pressure cooker builds pressure. Then lower the heat and let it cook under pressure for about 15 minutes. Do not get distracted: if your pressure cooker expels too much steam, the chicken may become too dry.
- Serve garnished with a little chopped parsley and accompany with white rice and a delicious salad.
