How to prepare Instant Pot Copycat Bourbon Chicken


Ingredients:

  • > 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • > 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • > 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • > 1/4 cup bourbon
  • > 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • > 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • > 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • > 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • > 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
  • > 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • > 2 tablespoons water
  • > 2 green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. 1. In the Instant Pot, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, bourbon, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, onion powder, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir well to combine.

  3. 2. Add the chicken thigh pieces to the Instant Pot and stir until they are coated in the sauce.

  5. 3. Close the Instant Pot lid and set the valve to the sealing position. Cook on high pressure for 8 minutes.

  7. 4. Once the cooking time is complete, allow for a natural release of pressure for 5 minutes, then do a quick release to release any remaining pressure.

  9. 5. In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water to make a slurry.

  11. 6. Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode and add the cornstarch slurry to the pot. Stir well to combine the slurry with the sauce. Cook for a few minutes until the sauce thickens.

  13. 7. Turn off the Instant Pot and let the Bourbon Chicken sit for a few minutes to allow the sauce to thicken further.

  15. 8. Serve the Bourbon Chicken over steamed rice or noodles.

  17. 9. Garnish with sliced green onions.

  19. 10. Enjoy your delicious Instant Pot Copycat Bourbon Chicken!

Note: If you prefer a spicier version, you can increase the amount of red pepper flakes or add hot sauce to taste. Adjust the sweetness and saltiness of the sauce according to your preference by adding more brown sugar or soy sauce as needed.
