INGREDIENTS

•  1 - 1 1/4 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts (fresh not frozen), excess fat removed
•  2/3 c. coconut aminos or low-sodium soy sauce
•  2 tbsp. toasted sesame oil
•  3 tbsp. rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
•  2 tbsp. brown sugar or honey
•  1 tbsp. minced shallot
•  3 cloves garlic, minced
•  1/4 tsp. freshly grated ginger
•  1/2 tsp. salt (if using aminos instead of soy sauce)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Turn the Instant Pot on the SAUTE setting. Add the chicken and cook for about 5 minutes to render any excess fat.
2. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the aminos or soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, vinegar, brown sugar or honey, shallot, garlic, ginger and salt (if using aminos).
3. Discard fat and liquid from the chicken. Pour the sauce over top.
4. Place the lid on the Instant Pot and pressure cook on the POULTRY setting for 20 minutes. After the chicken has fully cooked, carefully turn the steam release vent (I always do this with a long oven mitt on) and let the pressure come down manually. Once the valve pops, remove the lid and turn the Instant Pot on SAUTE.
5. Cook the chicken until the almost all of the remaining liquid is gone. The sauce will thicken and the chicken will begin to caramelize. Shred the chicken and toss in the sauce.
6. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds, if desired.
