Ingredients
Instant Pot Chicken and Potatoes Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice (pimento)
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 6 large chicken thighs bone in and skin on
- 1 cup (237mL) chicken broth or stock
- 1 teaspoon Garlic puree
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 pound (453g) new potatoes halved
- 1 teaspoon of fresh oregano
Instructions
Instant Pot Instructions:
- In a bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of the olive oil with salt, smoked paprika and allspice.
- Add in chicken thighs and coat well.
- Heat the other 1 tablespoon of oil in the Instant Pot insert using the sauté mode, then add the chicken thighs and brown on both sides, for about 6 mins total.
- Switch off the Instant Pot and remove any excess oil.
- Pour in the chicken stock and deglaze the Instant Pot insert.
- Add in the rest of the ingredients, place on the lid, lock it and set the valve to the sealing position.
- Set the Instant Pot to manual pressure, high pressure for 8 minutes.
- When done, allow for a 5 minutes natural pressure release. Then perform a quick pressure release to remove any remaining pressure.
Make it with Gravy (optional):
- Remove all ingredients from the Instant Pot and set it to sauté mode.
- Make a paste of 1 tablespoon each cornstarch and water, and add to the Instant Pot.
- Cook on sauté mode until it thickens, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

Notes
- You need to use new potatoes for this recipe. Cut them in half, but if they happen to be really small you can use them whole.
- Browning the chicken is not a requirement, but it does add a nice depth of flavor (not to mention lovely color) to the dish.
- Chicken thighs work best, as chicken breast might end up drying out during the time it takes to cook the potatoes.
- If made using boneless and skinless chicken thighs, there are just 3 Freestyle SmartPoints in a serving.

- It is important to always check the temperature of your chicken with a meat thermometer. Your Instant Pot chicken thighs have cooked fully through and are safe to eat when they have reached an internal temperature of 165 F/ 75 C.
