This Instant Pot Honey Garlic Chicken is juicy, tender, sweet and savoury dish with amazingly delicious honey and garlic sauce. It is a dump and start recipe that's ready in less than 20 minutes!

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken breasts (cubed into bite-size or 1-inch pieces)
  • ½ cup honey
  • ⅓ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • ⅓ cup ketchup
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 tablespoon green onion (chopped - for garnish)
  • 2 teaspoons sesame seeds (for garnish)

Directions

  1. 1

    Add the chicken to the Instant Pot, followed by soy sauce, ketchup, honey, garlic, and water. Give the ingredients a quick mix.

  2. 2

    Secure the lid and set the vent to SEALING. Select the PRESSURE COOK/MANUAL setting and set the cooking time for 3 minutes at high pressure. The Instant Pot will take around 7-10 minutes to come to pressure and start cooking. When the cooking program ends, quickly release the steam.

  3. 3

    Press on SAUTE, and once the sauce comes to a boil add the cornstarch mixed with water. Whisk until the sauce is thickened (it thickens very quickly). Serve over rice, and garnish with chopped green onion and sesame seeds.
