The key for this recipe is to be certain to follow the step of cooking off the excess liquid at the end. This process makes the sauce delectable!

So flavorful with all those warming spices. Served it over rice on a rainy day. I used the instant pot recipe because my chicken was slightly frozen so I set the timer for 12 minutes and still did the natural release.

So good! I was worried the chicken would be dry but it wasn’t! I was able to shred it because I just prefer that!
