Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 - 2 lbs. (750g-900g) chicken thighs 5 chicken thighs
  • salt
  • ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parley

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Season both sides of the chicken thighs with salt and ground black pepper.
  2. Mix the honey, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and chicken broth together. Stir to combine well.
  3. Turn on the Instant Pot and set it to the Sauté mode. Once fully heated, add the olive oil to prevent the chicken from sticking. Pan-sear the chicken thighs, starting with the skin side down, until the skin is golden brown and the bottom is nicely browned.
  4. Add the garlic to the pot, followed by the honey mustard mixture. Cover the lid, select Manual, and set to High Pressure for 10 minutes. When it beeps, turn to Quick Release. Once the valve drops, carefully remove the lid and add the chopped parsley. Switch to Sauté mode and reduce the sauce for 1 to 2 minutes if you prefer a thicker sauce. Serve with plain spaghetti or steamed rice.

Notes

  • If you don’t have an Instant Pot, you can make this Honey Mustard Chicken in a slow cooker, or on your stove top. If you use a slow cooker, make sure not to overcook it. Use high heat and cook for 3 hours. For stove top, just pan-fry the chicken and then add in the Sauce. Simmer on low heat and cook until the chicken meat is tender.
