Instructions

  • Mix brown sugar, paprika, oregano, garlic powder, and salt together in a bowl until well blended.
  • Pat chicken thighs dry so seasoning sticks better.
  • Rub the spice mixture all over each thigh.
  • Wrap each seasoned thigh with a half slice of bacon, tucking ends underneath.
  • Place bacon-wrapped thighs into the pressure cooker. Optionally add 1 cup of water or broth.
  • Seal the lid, ensure sealing ring is set, and float valve is down. Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes.
  • Let the pressure release naturally for tender, juicy chicken.
  • Serve hot. Optionally, broil for extra-crispy bacon.
