Main ingredients

  • 600 g Chicken Thigh boneless, skinless, large bite-sized chunks
  • 50 g Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garlic Powder

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix flour, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper. Toss chicken pieces in the mixture so they’re all coated evenly.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon unsalted butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken in batches, searing until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per batch. Set aside.
  • Lower heat to medium. Add honey, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, salt, and pepper to the pan. Stir to combine and warm through.
  • Add the remaining 5 tablespoon butter diced into chunks. Stir until melted and the sauce is smooth, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Return seared chicken to the skillet and toss in the honey butter sauce. Simmer 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  • Transfer everything into your pressure cooker pot, close lid with float valve ready. Cook on high pressure for 5 minutes.
  • Quick release pressure. Once float valve drops, open lid and stir to coat before serving hot.

Notes

Try with rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables for an easy comforting meal. Store leftovers in airtight container and reheat gently with splash of water or broth.
