Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 1 ¼ pounds chicken breast boneless, skinless
- ⅓ cup cornflour
- ⅓ cup flour
- 3 egg beaten
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ cup green onions sliced
- ¼ cup snow peas
- ¼ cup red pepper sliced
- ½ onion sliced
Sauce Ingredients
- ⅓ cup buffalo sauce
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 Tablespoon rice vinegar

Instructions
- Trim and cut chicken breasts into 1″ to 1.5″ chunks and set aside.
- Create a dredging station with one bowl of beaten eggs and one bowl of flour and cornflour.
- Dip each piece of chicken in egg wash, then roll in flour coating.
- Cook chicken using an Air Fryer (5 minutes at 400°F) or by pan-frying in a wok or skillet with 4TB oil. You don't want to cook the chicken all the way through, as it will finish cooking in the Instant Pot.
- Add olive oil and the veggies to the Instant Pot on the Sauté setting (high). Cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes, then add the chicken to the Instant Pot.
- In a small bowl, whisk together buffalo sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar and red pepper flakes. Pour sauce over chicken and toss to combine.
- Turn off the Instant Pot or press "cancel."
- Place the lid on the Instant Pot and seal. Turn on Manual for 4 minutes.
- When done cooking, release the pressure from the Instant Pot, remove the lid and enjoy!
