This was a little too spicy for the family, so I'll need to adjust it a little the next time, but the flavor was amazing!
- 2-3 lbs Bone-In Chicken thighs or legs (I did boneless skinless chicken breasts)
- 2 TBS coconut oil
- 1 TBS chipotle powder
- 1 TBS cumin
- 1 tsp coriander
- 1 tsp ginger
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp tumeric
- 1 TBS Himalayan Pink Salt (I used Kosher salt)
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp ground cayenne pepper
- Sesame seeds for garnish
- Cilantro for garnish
- Chopped green onion for garnish
- 1/4 cup raw honey
- 2 TBS unsulphured black strap molasses
- 2 TBS sirracha
- 2 TBS lemon juice
- 1/2 cup water
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels
- Combine dry ingredients in a small bowl. Coat the chicken and rub well on all sides.
- Turn Instant Pot on to saute with lid off. Add coconut oil and brown all sides of chicken. Don't overcrowd the chicken, you may need to do a few batches.
- Remove chicken from IP and carefully add 1/2 cup water. Scrape the chicken bits off with a wooden spoon. Add the steaming rack, and carefully stack chicken. Set IP for Manual for 12-13 minutes. (Less if using smaller pieces of chicken. I cooked for 10 mins) Make sure the steam valve is closed.
- While the chicken is cooking, combine the honey, molasses, sirracha, and lemon juice in a small bowl.
- When chicken is done cooking, quick release and remove chicken. Add in the sauce to all the leftover juices. Turn IP to Saute, and allow to come to a boil, whisking occasionally. Allow to thicken, about 10 minutes. (If it gets too thick, just add a little water)
- When the sauce has thickened, turn IP to Keep Warm. Using tongs, dip the chicken into the sauce to coat all sides. Garnish as desired.
