Make your next weeknight dinner a breeze with this instant pot chicken stir fry! Flavorful stir fry sauce cooked into tender chicken and colorful vegetables. Serve with rice or noodles for a healthy, balanced, family-friendly meal that’s ready in under 20 minutes!
Dice the chicken into bite-size pieces and place in the bottom of the instant pot.
Mix the stir-fry sauce ingredients (except for the cornstarch) together and pour over the chicken. Give it a quick stir to ensure the chicken is fully coated by the sauce.
Place the lid on and set the seal to close. Cook on manual high pressure for 6 minutes, and do a quick release.
After the pressure has fully released, open and add the chopped vegetables.
Add the lid back on and cook on manual high pressure for 1 minute (or 0 minutes for less cooked vegetables), and do a quick release when it finishes.
Select the saute function, and while it heats, mix the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of cold water. When you see a slight simmer starting, add the cornstarch slurry into the liquid and stir for 2-4 minutes while it thickens.
Serve the chicken, vegetables, and sauce over rice or ramen! Garnish with minced green onion if you’d like.
