Directions

Step 1 -Press the "sauté" button on a pressure cooker.

Step 3 -Add the onion slices, the salt, and the pepper to the butter and cook until they are very soft and tender.

Step 4 -Pour 1/2 cup of the chicken broth into the onion mixture to deglaze the bottom of the pressure cooker, scraping up any bits that may have been stuck.

Step 5 -Add the chicken breasts to the broth mixture and top with the garlic, the paprika, and the thyme.

Step 6 -In a mixing bowl, add the flour and the Worcestershire sauce and mix to combine.

Step 7 -Add the remaining chicken broth to the flour mixture and whisk together.

Step 8 -Carefully pour the flour mixture over the chicken mixture.

Step 9 -Press the "pressure cook" button and set the timer for 20 minutes.

Step 10 -Preheat the broiler.

Step 11 -Let the pressure cooker do a natural release for 5 minutes, then move the valve to vent and release the remaining pressure.

Step 12 -Transfer the chicken to a plate and shred with two forks.

Step 13 -Return the shredded chicken to the juices.

Step 14 -Scoop the chicken mixture onto the hoagie rolls, topping each one with a slice of the provolone cheese, and then sprinkle with the fresh parsley.

Step 15 -Place the sandwiches on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven to broil until the cheese melts and the hoagie rolls are toasted, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 16 -Serve.
