Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 1/4 lb chicken breast raw
  • 1 red bell pepper 130 grams, medium, sliced
  • 4 cups broccoli slaw 340 grams, HEB brand
  • 1 cup brown jasmine rice 180 grams dry measure, Lundberg Organic brand, cooked
  • 1/3 cup green onions chopped
  • 2 tbsp cilantro fresh, chopped
  • peanut crushed, optional

Sauce

  • 1 cup coconut milk 8 fl oz, light
  • 1/3 cup powdered peanut butter 32 grams, PB2 brand
  • 3 cloves garlic 12 grams, minced
  • 2 tbsp peanut butter 32 grams, Skippy Natural Creamy brand
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce 1 fl oz, low sodium
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar (1/2 fl oz)
  • 1 tbsp red curry paste 15 grams, Thai Kitchen brand
  • 1 tbsp ginger 9 grams, paste
  • 1 lime juiced

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk all sauce ingredients except PB2 and peanut butter (they will burn if you put them in before cooking).  Pour 1/2 of the sauce into the bottom of the Instant Pot.  Add chicken, then add remaining sauce.
  2. Set Instant Pot to high pressure for 12-14 minutes (do 14 mins for thicker pieces of chicken), followed by manual release.  Remove chicken, shred, and set aside. Pour the sauce into a bowl and whisk in PB2 and peanut butter.
  3. Set Instant Pot to sauté and add bell pepper and broccoli slaw. Sauté for 5 minutes or until pepper begins to soften slightly. Return sauce to the Instant Pot and mix.
  4. Return chicken to mixture and stir to coat. Add a little chicken stock if the sauce is too thick.
  5. Serve chicken mixture over a bed of rice and top with fresh cilantro, green onions, and peanuts (if desired).
