Directions
- Add the onion, carrot, celery, peppercorns, water, and chicken to the pressure cooker.
2. Lock the lid into place and bring to high pressure; maintain pressure for 10 minutes.
3. Remove from heat; allow pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes and then quick-release any remaining pressure.
4. Use a slotted spoon to transfer chicken to a bowl. Strain the broth in the pressure cooker and then pour it over the chicken. Allow chicken to cool in the broth.
5. To make the salad, add the mayonnaise, sour cream, curry powder, salt, and pepper to a bowl. Stir to mix. Stir in the apples, grapes, celery, almonds, and red onion or shallot.
