Step-by-step
- Prep all your ingredients.
- Preheat Instant Pot using the Sâauté function. Sprinkle cubed chicken with salt and pepper.
- Once the pot reads HOT coat bottom in oil and add chicken. Sâauté chicken until it's almost done, then add all other ingredients, stir to combine.
- Put the lid on the pot and program to STEAM for 2 mins. ENJOY!
Raw honey and coconut aminos form the base of a quick pan-sauce, yet the ingredient quantities alone do not reveal how high heat transforms these components. Combining unrefined sugars with amino acids triggers caramelization reactions on the surface of cubed poultry, producing savory compounds through the Maillard reaction. When pressure cooking volatile ingredients like minced garlic, enclosing the vessel traps aromatic molecules that would otherwise escape into the room during standard pan-searing. Managing moisture levels inside a sealed chamber prevents the diced bell peppers and fibrous asparagus from becoming waterlogged.
- Substitute tamari or soy sauce for coconut aminos using a strict one-to-one ratio, keeping in mind that traditional soy products will introduce significantly higher sodium levels.
- Cut asparagus spears into uniform two-inch lengths so thermal energy penetrates the stalks evenly alongside denser cubed chicken breasts.
- Preheat the electric pressure cooker insert until the digital display registers hot before adding cooking oil, which ensures proteins release cleanly without sticking.
- Program the steam cycle for exactly two minutes to halt cooking before residual heat oversoftens the crisp bell peppers and diced onions.
- Toast sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for three minutes until fragrant before scattering them over the finished dish for added crunch.
Adjusting sweet and savory elements requires tasting the reduction before sealing the lid, as concentrated honey burns easily if sugars scorch against hot stainless steel. Proper timing guarantees that dense vegetables retain structural integrity while poultry reaches safe internal temperatures.
