Instructions: In a 4- or 6-quart pressure cooker place chicken, carrots, mushrooms, sweet pepper, onion, garlic, undrained tomatoes, and chicken broth.

Lock lid in place. Place pressure regulator on vent pipe (if you have a first-generation cooker). Over high heat, bring cooker up to pressure. Reduce heat just enough to maintain pressure and pressure regulator rocks gently; cook for 8 minutes.

Quick-release the pressure. Carefully remove lid.

Add zucchini and couscous to cooker. Cover loosely (do not lock lid) and let stand about 7 minutes or until couscous is tender. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Sprinkle with parsley.

This recipe yields 4 main-dish servings (5 1/2 cups).

Comments: Couscous is a tiny grainlike pasta from North Africa. A packaged precooked version is found in many supermarkets. In this recipe couscous is added to the cooked garlic-seasoned chicken stew to steam until tender.
