Hi friends!

I’m back to share another quick and easy Instant Pot recipe with you guys! Don’t have one yet?? As you can see I’m still loving mine and using it a couple times a week. I have this one (affiliate link). But rest assured, this can also be made in a slow cooker and taste just as good!

Chicken is a staple in our grocery cart every single week so I’m always looking for new ways to flavor it. I made this last week on a whim and it turned out really well so I made it again this week to share with you guys! Start to finish, it only takes about 30 minutes and it super versatile. You could use it to make tacos, serve it with veggies like I did or serve it over rice. I use about one and a half pounds of chicken so we have some leftover because the flavors deepen as it sits!

Instant Pot Asian Chicken

Pretty much all you have to do here is chop up a few veggies, throw them in the pot, add the chicken and whip up a quick sauce to pour over it. 5 minutes of effort- that’s it! If you’re cooking it in a slow cooker, I’d probably add an extra 1/4 cup broth.

Here’s the recipe:
