• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 5 minutes
• total time: 18 minutes

Ingredients

2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast or thigh (diced)

1/4 cup bourbon

1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium)

1/4 cup water

1/4 cup ketchup

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 cube chicken bouillon

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

2 cloves garlic (minced)

1/2 tablespoon ginger (grated)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 tablespoon water

2 cups cooked rice

Directions

Add the chicken and all ingredients through the black pepper to the pot. Stir. Lock the lid and set the valve to sealing. Press pressure cook and set the time to 3 minutes. When the cook time is up, allow a 5 minute natural pressure release, then manually release remaining pressure.

Remove the chicken from the pot, leaving behind the sauce. Press the Saute mode on the Instant Pot and bring the sauce to a boil.

Mix the cornstarch and water in a bowl. Pour it into the pot. Stir well and boil until the sauce thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Add the chicken back to the pot and stir to coat the pieces.

Serve over rice.
