Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2-2.5 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 tsp chili powder or paprika (smoked works)
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
2 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ginger
3/4 tsp black pepper
1 3/4 tsp salt
1/2 c water
STIRRED IN LATER FOR SAUCE:
1/4 c (plus about a tbsp. extra) honey (tip: coat measuring cup in cooking oil & honey will pour out easily)
1 lemon, juice & zest (optional)

Steps:

1. Place all ingredients except honey & lemon into Instant Pot. It is okay if chicken is frozen.
2. Pressure cook high for 24 minutes if chicken is frozen. If not frozen, may reduce time at least 4 minutes, maybe more. Manual pressure release as soon as time is up. Stir.
3. Remove chicken to a serving bowl & cover to keep warm. Simmer sauce on sauté function, until reduced some, then add honey (& lemon juice and zest if using) & simmer more until it is the thickness you want for your sauce. Pour over chicken.
4. My kid was on week 2 of the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, with only limited ingredients added back in, when we served this. These are the sides I served it with: -Roasted fresh pineapple (450° F convection oven for 40 minutes.) -Green beans (very soft: pressure cooked for 9 minutes) -Zucchini "rice": Peel & de-seed 6 small zucchinis (if needed for sensitivity/early stage of SCD), then grate. In a pan with light flavored olive oil/cooking oil, heat with several cloves crushed garlic, till just cooked, then add 2-3 Tbsp. lime juice.

Press "Sauté" button, and cook on sauté mode without stirring, until the chicken has nicely browned on the bottom. Stir, and cook a bit more to brown as many sides of the chicken as you can. Add the onion & cook a bit longer. Press cancel.
2. Add the lemon juice, lemon flavoring (or lemon zest), and water or chicken broth. Pressure cook on high for 7 minutes. Let it natural pressure release for 2 minutes, then manually release the pressure.
3. Stir in the SCD dripped yogurt made with half & half. Serve and sprinkle any additional garnishes on top. Goes well with a side of steamed broccoli.
