Instant Pot Chicken & Broccoli

Step 1

Mix the sauce ingredients, except the cornstarch, in a small bowl. Add 1 tbsp of the sauce to the chicken. Stir to coat and set aside to marinate.

Step 2

Set the Instant Pot to saute. Add the cooking oil. When hot, add the broccoli and saute, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Remove the broccoli from the pot. Cancel saute mode.

Step 3

Add the chicken to the Instant Pot, along with chicken broth. Lock the lid and turn the vent to sealing. Press the pressure cook button and set the Instant Pot to 4 minutes (high pressure).

Step 4

When the time is up, do a manual release of pressure and remove the lid.

Step 5

Add the corn starch to the remaining sauce and stir it until smooth.

Step 6

Press saute mode again and add the broccoli back to the pot.

Step 7

Pour the sauce over the chicken and broccoli. Stir well and allow the sauce to thicken for about 3 minutes. Turn off the Instant Pot. Serve over rice, if desired.
