Instant Pot Apricot Chicken

My husband would eat this Apricot Chicken once a week if he could, he just loves this recipe. It is a great recipe that is ready to go on the table in a very short time and it is worth waiting on every minute, it really is that good. A great blend of seasons and into an instant pot for the quick but tender turn around, then it has this amazing sauce. If you serve this with some rice and fresh asparagus from the garden it is a fantastic spring meal!

Allow a 10 minute natural release, then a quick release remaining pressure after that.

Remove the lid and remove the chicken to a holding platter.

Make a slurry from the corn starch and water.
