Instant Pot® Honey-Garlic Chicken

Recipe View In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, ketchup, and sriracha sauce until well combined. Set aside. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Place chicken pieces in a large bowl and sprinkle with cornstarch. Toss until each piece is evenly coated. (3 minutes)

Recipe View Turn on your Instant Pot® and select the 'Sauté' function. Add vegetable oil and let it heat up. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Add half of the chicken to the Instant Pot® in a single layer. Cook for 3 minutes, then flip the chicken and cook for an additional 2 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove the chicken and set aside on a plate. Repeat with the remaining chicken. (10 minutes)

Recipe View Pour chicken broth into the Instant Pot® and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. This process, known as deglazing, adds depth of flavor to the sauce. Turn off the 'Sauté' function. (3 minutes)

Recipe View Return all of the chicken to the Instant Pot®. Pour the honey-garlic mixture over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated with the sauce. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Close the lid and lock it in place. Select the 'Pressure Cook' or 'Manual' function on high pressure and set the timer for 2 minutes. Allow 10 minutes for the pressure to build inside the pot. (12 minutes)

Recipe View Once the cooking time is complete, carefully release the pressure using the quick-release method, following the manufacturer's instructions. Be cautious of the steam! (5 minutes)

Recipe View Once all the pressure is released and the valve has dropped, carefully open the lid. Stir the chicken to ensure it's evenly coated in the now thickened sauce. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Serve hot, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. This dish pairs perfectly with steamed rice or quinoa. (2 minutes)
