Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 - 2 lbs chicken thighs 5 chicken thighs
  • Salt
  • Ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parley

Instructions

  1. Season both sides of the chicken thighs with salt and ground black pepper.
  2. Mix the honey, dijon mustard, soy sauce and chicken broth together. Stir to combine well.
  3. Turn on the Instant Pot and set the mode to Saute. Add the olive oil when it's fully heated so the chicken won't stick to the pot. Pan-sear both sides of the chicken thighs, skin side down first, until the skin is a nice golden brown and the bottom part is nicely browned.
  4. Add the garlic into the pot, follow by the honey mustard mixture. Cover the lid and select Manual and set to High pressure for 10 minutes. When it beeps, turn to Quick Release. When the valve drops, remove the lid carefully, add the chopped parsley. Change to saute mode and reduce the sauce for 1 to 2 minutes, if you like a thicker sauce. Serve with plain spaghetti or steamed rice.

Recipe Notes

If you don’t have an Instant Pot, you can make this Honey Mustard Chicken in a slow cooker, or on your stove top. If you use a slow cooker, make sure not to overcook it. Use high heat and cook for 3 hours. For stove top, just pan-fry the chicken and then add in the Sauce. Simmer on low heat and cook until the chicken meat is tender.

  1. Delicious! Thanks for the recipe! I used boneless skinless chicken breasts, set them aside after browning while I sautéed onions, shallots and mushrooms I needed to use up, along with the garlic. I might add a splash of white wine next time. And there WILL be a next time!

  3. I made with 1.25lbs frozen boneless/skinless thighs, doubled the sauce recipe and did at high pressure for 12 minutes and it worked really well.

  5. I made this recipe last night with boneless, skinless chicken thighs and it was delicious! My husband also thought it was great. This will be one of my regularly used recipes. I sautéed 8 thighs in 2 batches in my instant pot, 2 minutes each side. Then I poured 1 1/2 recipes of the sauce on the thighs in the pot (I had prepared previously), and high pressure cooked 3 minutes. I took out the thighs and reduced the sauce and added 1/4 cup cream. The cream elevates a notch, but I will not use for “regular dinners”.

  7. I wonder about the nutritional information. This recipe says there is 5.4 g protein per serving. One of your similar recipes I believe it’s the garlic honey chicken has same amount of chicken and it lists 50g Per serving.

  9. Hello! Was just wondering, can I sub chicken breasts instead of thighs? wanted to make this tonight but im broke and unfortunately only have breasts. and if so, will that affect the amount of ingredients or cooking time?

  10. It made these on top the stove a couple weeks ago and they were delicious!! have 3 large chicken breasts that are frozen but I want to make in my new insta pot ultra. Don’t have time to thaw them. Is there anyway I could adjust the recipe to make it work?

    Reply

    • It’s best you thaw them. I have never used frozen breast in my IP. If you do, I guess you will have to double the sauce and cook longer in the IP, perhaps 12-15 minutes on high pressure.

  13. I have an IP Mini. How do I adjust the amount of cook time? Do my chicken thighs have to all be on one layer at the bottom of the pot? Is the mixture enough liquid for pressure cooking??

    Reply

      • It didn’t go very well. I used 3 bone-in thighs and followed the directions. I don’t think I pan seared long enough (I’m a pretty inexperienced cook and new to all this), but the real problem seemed to be that they were just swimming in sauce. I pressure cooked them for 9 minutes and the sauce was watery at the end…so I added 3 min of saute so it would thicken, but it didn’t. It’s not BAD, but it doesn’t look like yours. Any ideas where I went wrong?

  15. Look so amazing! I wonder 10 minute is enough to make chicken soft and infused spices, isn’t? I always have to marinated it with spices for a long time before i cook it, it will be delecious but need a lot of time. Thank for your sharing!

  16. I made this for my 14 year old fussy eater granddaughter and her 2 friends. They absolutely loved it! My granddaughter made me promise I would give the recipe to her mother. This recipe is so easy. I made it on the stove top. Definitely a winner.
