Place boneless chicken thighs in the instant pot. Add a cup of water. Cover, set your Instant Pot to “pressure cook” for 20 minutes. Allow the pressure to release naturally.

At the same time, measure and rinse the buckwheat groats.

Place in the large pot, add the double amount of water, and bring to boil on high heat. Once boiling skim the foam once, reduce the heat to the lowest setting, cover the pot so the groats will finish cooking and all the water evaporates.

Once the chicken is cooked, safely release the pressure. Open the instant pot and using two large forks, shred the chicken into smaller pieces.
