Ingrediënten

6-8 chicken thighs, fresh thighs or individually frozen thighs, with or without bone, with or without skin

Salt

Pepper

Water

½ small onion (optional)

2 cloves peeled garlic (optional)

Instructies

Season thighs liberally with salt and pepper.

Measure 1 cups water into the bottom of your Instant Pot insert.*

Add onion and garlic to Instant Pot, if using.

Put the trivet or a steamer basket on top of the water/veggies. Put the thighs on top of the trivet in a single layer (it’s okay if they overlap a little bit but not much).

Seal the Instant Pot and set the valve to sealed. Set the Instant Pot to pressure cook on high for the times listed in notes.

Boneless skinless thighs only need 10 minutes for 6-8 thighs.

Once the pressure cooker has counted down, let it do a natural release for 5 minutes before turning the valve to vent.

Once the pressure button moves down, remove lid. Remove chicken thighs. Strain liquid if desired for use as a stock.
