Directions: |
Directions:Add the Catalina dressing, apple cider vinegar and honey to the Instant Pot. Whisk together so it forms a sauce
Add the red bell peppers and mix with the sauce and then lay the chicken thighs on top Secure the lid and cook on “Manual” or “Pressure Cook” High Pressure for 10 minutes. Quick release when done
Carefully remove the chicken with tongs and place in a serving dish. Hit “Keep Warm/Cancel” and then “Sauté” so it’s on the “High” or “More” setting. Add in the drained pineapple chunks and cornstarch slurry. Stir very well, giving the bottom of the pan a little scrape (not because anything should be stuck to it, but just to mix in any settled honey or cornstarch). Let is set for a minute and bring to a bubble. Once it bubbles for another minute, give it a stir, turn the pot off and let the sauce cool a little. It will thicken nicely Once the sauce has cooled down some, spoon it (and the peppers and pineapple) over the chicken and serve with a rice of your choice |
