Ingredients

  • 800 ml Chicken stock Vegetable stock would also work.
  • 6 Cloves Garlic (finely chopped)
  • 1 tbsp Ginger (finely chopped)
  • 4 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 4 tbsp Hoisin sauce
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • 2 tbsp Rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Chili sauce I used sriracha
  • 2 tsp Sesame oil
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 500 g Spaghetti
  • 1 large Onion (roughly chopped)
  • 200 g Carrots (thinly sliced)
  • 454 g Chicken thigh or breast (diced)
  • 200 g Cabbage (thinly sliced)
  • 1 Pepper (any colour)
  • 100 g Mange tout Sugarsnap or snow peas would be very similar.
  • 100 g Broccoli (florets)
  • Sesame seeds To garnish

Instructions

  • Add the chicken stock, garlic and ginger to the instant pot. Set to saute to start the cooking process.
  • Add the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, rice vinegar, chili sauce, sesame oil and pepper. Stir thoroughly.
  • Break the spaghetti in half and layer over the sauce. Push the spaghetti down (it should be just about covered by the liquid).
  • Add the onion, carrot and chicken. DO NOT STIR! Put the lid on the instant pot and set on high pressure for 4 minutes.
  • Leave under pressure for a further 4 minutes and then perform a quick release. Remove the lid and tease apart any spaghetti that is stuck together (I used a fork).
  • Add the cabbage, pepper, mange tout and broccoli. Stir well and put the lid on the instant pot for around 5 minutes to cook the vegetables
  • Remove the lid and stir thoroughly. Serve and enjoy.
