General Tso's Chicken Recipe
4 lb. (2 kg) boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
Kosher Salt & freshly ground pepper.
2 Tbs. vegetable oil.
Pat the chicken dry & season with salt & pepper. In an Instant Pot set to Saute, warm the oil. In batches, sear the chicken, turning occasionally, until browned all over, about 8 minutes per batch. Remove all the chicken from the pot & add 2 Tbs. water to the pot. Using a wooden spoon, deglaze the pot, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits. Return all the chicken to the pot. Add the starter but DO NOT STIR. Lock the lid in place, seal & set to slow cook at high heat for 1.5 hours. When slow cooking is complete, quick release the remaining steam. Carefully remove the lid & serve.
