Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, chicken broth, green curry paste, soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, and dried basil until smooth. Set aside. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Turn on your Instant Pot and select the 'Sauté' function. Heat the vegetable oil in the pot. Add the chicken and sauté, stirring occasionally, until browned. (3-4 minutes)

03

Step

Stir in the minced jalapeño, garlic, lime zest, and grated ginger. Cook and stir for another minute until fragrant. Press 'Cancel' to stop the 'Sauté' function. (1 minute)

04

Step

Pour the coconut curry mixture into the pot, using a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from the bottom. This adds depth of flavor! Close and lock the Instant Pot lid. Select 'High Pressure' and set the timer for 6 minutes. Allow 10 minutes for the pressure to build. (17 minutes)

05

Step

Once the cooking time is complete, carefully release the pressure using the quick-release method. Unlock and remove the lid. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Select the 'Sauté' function again. Add the snow peas and red bell pepper to the pot. Cook until the vegetables are crisp-tender. Press 'Cancel'. (3-4 minutes)

07

Step

Garnish generously with chopped cilantro before serving. Enjoy with steamed rice for a complete and satisfying meal!

For a milder curry, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeño before mincing. If you prefer a spicier dish, leave some of the seeds in.
Feel free to add other vegetables such as bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, or eggplant for added texture and flavor.
The cooking time may vary slightly depending on your Instant Pot model. Always ensure the chicken is cooked through before serving.
For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
