Pressure Cooker Honey Mustard Chicken is a delicious meal that can be on your table in less than 30 minutes. Add some Perfectly Cooked Pot in Pot Rice and make this a one pot meal!
Oh, how I love Cracker Barrel’s Honey Mustard Fried Chicken Fingers.We don’t fry much in this house. I wanted to create something as good as the Cracker Barrel’s Honey Mustard Fried Chicken Fingers. Without deep frying, it’s nearly impossible.
I thought, how about Pressure Cooker Honey Mustard Chicken with a really good Honey Mustard Sauce to pour on top? Let’s take this one step further and made some rice in the same pot using the Pot in Pot Method. Here are the instructions: Perfectly Cooked Pot in Pot Rice.
It’ll have to do, for now, right? Well, once you taste how good this is, you won’t miss all that oil.
I like using a variety of mustard to achieve a complex flavor. If you don’t have all the varieties listed, I will made notations in the Notes section of the recipe for substitutes and amounts.
Turn this Pressure Cooker Honey Mustard Chicken recipe into a one pot meal!
You will just need these two accessories. One Round Stainless Steel Pan and a Tall Legged Stainless Steel Steaming Rack/Trivet.
Whisk up the ingredients and taste a drop. If you feel the sauce is a tad too sweet, add 1/2 teaspoon of yellow mustard.
Dice the onions as fine as possible.
Place the chicken, onions and half of the sauce into the Pressure Cooker cooking pot and then pour in the chicken broth.
If you are making this a One Pot Meal using my Pressure Cooker Perfectly Cooked Pot In Pot Rice recipe, add your Tall Legged Trivet and Rice now.
You are ready to lock on the lid and cook your entire dinner in ONE pot at the same time!!!
I know many of you use your 1.5 Quart Stainless Steel “Pot in Pot” Bowl for Pot in Pot cooking. I prefer the Round Pressure Cooker Dessert Pans. The rice cooked more evenly and was totally perfect.
Open the pot and remove the Pan of rice.
Your rice will be perfectly cooked at the same exact time as your Pressure Cooker Honey Mustard Chicken.
Fluff up the rice and plate your dinner.
Using the reserved sauce, pour over the top or use as a dip. It’s not Cracker Barrel, but it is very good and much better for the heart.
For a stickier chicken, try putting the pieces under the broiler or Mealthy CrispLid for a few minutes.
Serve with Pressure Cooker Mashed Potatoes w/ Glistening Sauce, Mushroom Risotto or Garlic Whipped Potatoes and a green vegetable, of course.
