Remove steamer basket with chicken and allow to cool until you can easily handle the chicken. Remove the bones and skin from the chicken and discard.

Cut chicken into bite size pieces and return to the broth. Allow the mixture to come to a gentle boil and add the rest of the ingredients. Replace pressure lid, bring to pressure, over medium high heat, to the highest setting (III), reduce heat to medium and cook for 7 minutes. Remove pan from heat and let stand 10 minutes. Release pressure, remove lid, stir gently with fork, replace lid and allow to rest another 5 minutes before serving.
