Pressure Cooker Whole Chicken

I've fallen in love with my pressure cooker and was anxious to try this. it's now my new favorite way to prepare a whole chicken. this recipe is a combination of ideas i found online, and you certainly could use any seasonings you want. the chicken turns out somewhere between roasted & stewed, and is delicous, tasty & moist. i served it with brown rice tossed with some dried basil & moistened with some of the juice from the chicken. you can have a real feast in 45 mins. Tops!!
