Instructions
Serves 4
For the Poached Chicken:
Add all of the ingredients (not the dipping sauce!) to the bowl of the Instant Pot, and set the pressure cooker to 0 minutes (yes that is right!) and then let it naturally depressurize for 25 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the liquid and let rest 20 minutes, tented. Meanwhile, divide all of the dipping sauce ingredients between 4 heatproof ramekins (2-3 oz).
Remove breasts and thighs and slice thinly on the bias. Right before serving, heat the neutral oil in a small saucepan and pour over the ingredients in the ramekins. Dip the chicken slices in the infused oil and enjoy!
