Instructions
- Place chicken in pressure cooker. Whisk together soy sauce, water, honey, garlic, rice vinegar, ground ginger, and crushed red pepper flakes. Pour over chicken.
- Place lid on pressure cooker, turn vent to seal. Press "pressure cook" and set timer to 20 minutes for frozen chicken, 10 minutes for thawed chicken.
- When pressure cooker "beeps" to signal end of cooking time, allow a natural release (aka don't do anything) until the float valve sinks.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove any pieces of fat in the pressure cooker leftover from the chicken Set pressure cooker to "soup" setting. Meanwhile, shred chicken.
- Once liquid comes to a boil, stir together corn starch and water and whisk into the sauce until thickened. Stir in sesame seeds.
- Turn off pressure cooker, transfer shredded chicken back to the pressure cooker and stir to coat in the sauce.
- Garnish with chopped green onions and serve over steamed or fried rice.
Notes
- Chicken - If using very thick pieces of frozen chicken (thicker than 1 1/2 inches) add 10 minutes to cooking time. If you are using very thick pieces of thawed chicken, simply pound chicken to 1 - 1 1/2 inches thickness before proceeding with recipe as written.
