A nice way to do chicken for such a purpose is to poach it. I do it
like this: Cover boneless, skinless chicken breasts with chicken broth
(however you want to make it), bring it to a boil, then *remove it from
the heat source and let it stand, covered, for 20-30 minutes.* It's
moist. Just use a saucepan, not your pressure cooker with gasket and
gauge in place.

The pressure cooker is at its best, IMO, for that which requires long
cooking. This isn't a pressure cooker method.
