    One our family favourites! I think I still prefer making it on the stovetop but the pressure cooker makes it a little faster.

    Some of you have shown concern for the pink tinge of the chicken. According to the USDA:

    “Darkening of bones and meat around the bones occurs primarily in young (6-8 weeks) broiler-fryer chickens. Since the bones have not calcified or hardened completely, pigment from the bone marrow seeps through the bones and into the surrounding area.

    Chemical changes occur during cooking. Oven gases in a heated gas or electric oven react chemically with hemoglobin in the meat tissues to give it a pink tinge. Often meat of younger birds shows the most pink because their thinner skins permit oven gases to reach the flesh. Older animals have a fat layer under their skin, giving the flesh added protection from the gases. Older poultry may be pink in spots where fat is absent from the skin. Also, nitrates and nitrites, which are often used as preservatives or may occur naturally in the feed or water supply used, can cause a pink color.

    If in doubt, use a therometer. The meat is safe to eat when all parts have reached a safe minimum internal temperature of 165°F as measured with a food thermometer.”

    OMG Flo, last time I cooked this, it took like two hours on the stove. Thank you so much for posting this recipe on YouTube. Saves a lot of time and money w/ instant pot! I made this for Chinese/lunar New Year this year. Tasted just like the restaurant, but WAY BETTER! SO easy to make with the instant pot. I’m never going back to the stove for this again. LOL Happy Lunar New Year 2020!! 🎉🍊🧧

    That looks delicious! I’m definitely going to have a go at i. I must ask, have you not thought of trying the Ninja Foodi? (Or maybe you have) The one thing I love about it is that it’s bowl is non-stick. I’ve had mine since October and the finish hasn’t deteriorated even slightly.

    Hi Flo and Dude. I’ve been watching and re-watching many of your videos today-had a hankering to cook and you’re my go-to cook… I want to try this recipe. One thing I wasn’t sure about is the skin of the chicken which is soft. Do you generally eat the skin? I tend to like any chicken skin crisped up…. Your thoughts?

    Today I cooked this recipe for our grandkids who are spending the night with us. I did it with a Instant Pot which I had it for a few months ago. Cooked with high pressure for 17 mins for a 3 lbs chicken. The chicken turned out pinky li ke yours especially near the bones when cut. I have to add another 8 mins to get rid of the pink tinge. I have tried the stovetop method before but I prefer the instant pot simply because the meat is sweeter and tender. The former way is whole lots of hassle-free and less time-consuming. Thanks for sharing.

    I am so going to make this! I have the Instant Pot, but I will do it anyway. I always have ginger, and I work at Sprouts, so a bunch of spring onions is a 50¢ grab during break.

    I made this today. Brought back memories like soul food often does. I had a small chicken, instant pot and although I cooked for 17 minutes, it was a bit under cooked. Your process was easy to follow. Thanks.
