Instructions
1

Start by seasoning 2 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Set your Instant Pot to the 'Sauté' mode and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

2

Once the oil is hot, add the seasoned chicken thighs and sear them for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

3

Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside. In the same pot, add 1/4 cup of low-sodium soy sauce, 1/4 cup of pure maple syrup, and 2 tablespoons of miso paste, stirring well to combine.

4

Return the chicken to the pot, ensuring it is coated in the glaze. Close the lid, set the valve to 'Sealing', and cook on 'Manual' high pressure for 10 minutes.

5

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the broccoli by cutting 1 pound of fresh broccoli into florets.

6

In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder.

7

After the chicken has finished cooking, perform a quick release of the pressure. Remove the chicken and let it rest for a few minutes.

8

Add the broccoli to the pot, close the lid, and cook on 'Manual' high pressure for 2 minutes. Once done, perform another quick release.

9

Serve the chicken drizzled with the maple-miso glaze and the sesame broccoli on the side, garnished with sliced green onions and additional sesame seeds if desired.
