Instant Pot Miso Chicken

I couldn’t find any miso chicken recipes for the Instant Pot, so I created my own! During the week, I’m all about quick cooking, simple recipes. This delicious concoction is only FIVE ingredients (including the chicken!).

I’m obsessed with ANYTHING miso, and it happens to be really awesome for gut health. Miso is a fermented food that adds beneficial microorganisms to your digestive tract. Did you know that our gut is now considered our second brain? We’ve only begun to understand the gut microbiome and I think it’s so fascinating!

This recipe is just as easy as my Instant Pot Asian Chicken.

My other favorite miso recipe (that I actually make at least once per week!) is my Miso Baked Meatballs. If you’re feeling seafood, check out my Miso Glazed Scallops!
