Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp. olive oil

  • 2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs

  • ½ cup onion (chopped)

  • 2 cloves of garlic (minced)

  • ½ cup soy sauce (low sodium)

  • ¼ teaspoon ground chili

  • ¼ cup tomato sauce

  • 1/3 cup honey

  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil (toasted)

  • 2 tablespoons of green onion (thinly sliced)

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

  • sesame seeds


Preparation:

  • Pour olive oil into the OAP and select "Sauté".

  • Add the chicken to the hot oil and brown on both sides (about 3-4 minutes per side). Do this in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot.

  • Next, place the browned chicken on a shallow plate and cover it with foil. This time, it shouldn't be fully cooked.

  • Add the onion to the pot, sauté for about 4 minutes to allow it to soften.

  • Then add the garlic and continue cooking for 1 or 2 more minutes.

  • Add ketchup, ground chili, and soy sauce to the pot, then use a wooden spoon to scrape up any brown bits from the pot to deglaze.

  • Add the chicken back to the pot. Turn once to coat and turn off the pot.

  • Secure the lid and set the cooker to "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" and set the timer for 5 minutes.

  • Once the timer beeps after cooking, allow the natural pressure to release for another 5 minutes and quickly release any remaining pressure.

  • Using tongs, remove the chicken from the pot and place it on a cutting board. Then cut each one into bite-sized pieces.

  • Add sesame oil and honey to the pot and stir well to combine.

  • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and ¼ cup of the liquid from the pot until thickened.

  • Add the chicken back to the pot and stir. Season to taste.

  • Serve hot over noodles or rice and garnish with sesame seeds and spring onion.

Yield: 4 - 6 servings.
