Equipment

Ingredients

  • Bone-In Skin on Chicken Thighs
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper
  • Garlic Powder
  • Paprika

Instructions

  • Open the Instant Pot and add 1 cup of water.
  • Generously season the chicken thighs on both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. It's important to use a lot of the seasonings and to rub them in well.
  • Put the seasoned thighs in the Instant Pot. You can put them on a trivet or in the water like I do. Now, close the lid on the IP, turn the valve to the sealing position, press the pressure cook button, and then set the time to 25 minutes on high pressure.
  • When the Instant Pot is done cooking, quick release the stem. Then allow it to be completely released until the pin drops before opening the lid.
  • To serve, remove the chicken thighs from the Instant Pot and enjoy!
